HE better.

There's little buzz out there about him and that usually is a bad sign.

Does this sound like a highly touted draft group to you:

"Blue took part in a six-player workout that also featured Serbian guard Nemanja Nedovic, Washington State senior forward Brock Motum, Arizona freshman forward Grant Jerrett, Butler senior center Andrew Smith and Serbian center Dejan Musli."


I also love this comment by presumably a WI-homer on the Bucks and Devin Harris:

"Devin Harris is really on the upswing in his career."

That ship sailed a couple of seasons ago. Upswing? He's 30 with declining stats since his peak with the Nets '08-09.

The probable reason teams bring in players like that, at this late of prior to draft, is to see which ones are viable to sign as a free agent.  This late in the ballgame, I suppose they know who is going to be their targets.  Best of luck to him for trying.

I wouldn't bury Vander's draft chances just yet.

I have it on good authority here (MU Scoop) that he is a first rounder.

And I'm guessing that each of those others is confident that each will be drafted.

Can anyone post a link or something from a draft "expert" that even shows him getting drafted?

Just read through this thread. Lots of expertise of various stripes to be found here...
