Nas Little plunged like that but it started early in the year.

Remember the Shabazz Muhammad hype out of UCLA?

Maybe. Utah needs guards too, so they might go with Keyonte George or Nick Smith Jr.

Ainge can't pass up a sliding talent, he jumped all over Sullinger and others in the past. Wonder if he goes Whitmore here....

Is Kris Murray the brother of the Sac Kings guy? Get him. I don't know anything about him but I like his brother's game.

Hearing it might be a knee injury for whitmore. Which is scary if it's a serious knee injury for a kid who's only 18...and a player who relies HEAVY on his athleticism.

Timelord all over again, yikes.

Yes, they're identical twins. Kris is good. Wouldn't hate it if he's our pick.

I still have hope the Celtics will draft Nnaji. The Celtics need that defensive anchor for the next 10 years.
