I really think that one of those "physical only" invites could drop into the late 1st/early 2nd a la Rashard.

Gonna be a weird draft.

Spreights, Chalmers.

The only thing I can think of is that these players that aren't listed still haven't signed on with an agent and thus they can't be included as draft picks until they do, so no invite. But that's just an uneducated guess on my part.

There are always players that don't go there, even if they're invited and/or it would be the best for them to participate in those games.

As those 3 guys are pretty solid and should've been invited, i think they and their agents thought that it would be better to not play there.

Weaver turned down his invitation, according to draftexpress. I think that's a mistake, although one that may drop him into one of our second rounders.
from ny, never been a fan of the knicks...

I talked to Kyle and he said that it wouldn't hurt or help him that much so he is just doing personal workouts.

Draftexpress has got the physicals of most of the players.

Beasley's just 6'8 1/2 in shoes, but makes up for that with a great wingspan.

Bayless's wingspan is pretty bad(like expected) at 6'3 1/2, though he's a legit 6'3 in shoes.

Derrick Rose is only 6'2 1/2 in shoes, but had a great 6'8 wingspan and a 40 inch vertical.

Brook Lopez is a legit 7'0 in shoes, has a 7'5 1/2 wingspan and 9-5 standing reach.

Love was measured as 6'9 1/2 in shoes, but still has a body fat of 12,9%.

OJ Mayo is 6'4 1/2 in shoes and had a 6'6 wingspan. He also had the second best vertical leap at 41 inches.

Anthony Randolph at only 197lbs.? That kid is going to need alot more weight if he expects to be a lottery pick and play power forward in the NBA.
