Parker announces tomorrow, apparently.  It's better for the Celts if he declares, but I'm hoping he remains at Duke.

Betting he is staying, just a gut feel.

Sorry to hear about WCS. I did not want to draft him, but that devalues our 18th pick. Am surprised to hear, actually, given the dearth of big men in this draft.

Wow, Kentucky is going to have a lot of centers next season.  Lee and Johnson came on very late in the season, and I think they have high prospect center coming in as a freshman.
Center Karl Towns Jr. from Andrew Bynum's HS and PF Trey Lyles who de-committed from IU.

Why's that?  Are you a Duke fan?

I don't really have a favorite NCAA team, but I don't mind Duke.  I just like watching good college basketball, and a Duke team with Parker and Okafor (plus the rest of the recruiting class) could be special.

As a UNC fan, I'll be glad if/when he declares
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Anybody else surprised by Robinson? In the second round in many mocks.

Not really.  He's pretty underrated in my mind -- I think he could be a combine riser.  He projects as a 2/3 wing in the NBA, but had to spend the entire year at the 4 due to injuries for Michigan.  It was likely that the same thing would have happened to him next year, both due to Michigan's system and lack of frontcourt depth.  It was best for him to leave.  Definitely someone I'd like Danny to try to buy a 2nd rounder for if he's available.

Aaron Gordon is already listed as in, I see, but Nick Johnson is also in.  Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Kaleb Tarczewski are out.

Willie Cauley-Stein is out
Dario Saric is in

Pretty excited Saric declared. If he falls to our BKN pick we need to draft him and not think twice.

Thanks evantime, we have WCS already but I hadn't heard Saric officially declared.  TP.

I'm going to wait until I see a report that Saric has made it official before allowing myself to believe he's entering the draft.

As I remember, his camp went back and forth about 37 times last year.  It seems like they are already up to about half that number this year. 
DKC Seventy-Sixers:

PG: G. Hill/D. Schroder
SG: C. Lee/B. Hield/T. Luwawu
SF:  Giannis/J. Lamb/M. Kuzminskas
PF:  E. Ilyasova/J. Jerebko/R. Christmas
C:    N. Vucevic/K. Olynyk/E. Davis/C. Jefferson

Wait, was Saric just rumor mill stuff?  I knew I should've double-checked.  Removed from the list.

I appreciate the help but please restrict yourself to guys who have actually declared and provide a link if possible.


EDIT: Looks like Saric's agent said he'd declare soon but might not stay in.  That's a bit better than some Internet rumor but it still sounds awfully fishy given Saric's track record.  I'll keep him out til something more substantive happens.

According to ESPN's Goodman, AJ Hammons is going back to Purdue. Not a very big name, but that's out there now.

Did Parker come to a decision today? Haven't been near a TV or espn.com today.

To paraphrase a wise Canadian, he chose not to decide but still made a choice.

That made me laugh.
