2012 NBA Draft

[CKR13]

Most mock drafts have Kentucky's Anthony Davis as the consensus first pick overall and it is projected that the Charlotte Bobcats will win the lottery. After the NCAA 2012 tournament, prospects will declare for the draft in droves.

More over, here is a nice take from ESPN about Illini's Meyers Leonard.

Should Illini's Leonard stay, or go to NBA?

We deserve to win the lottery this year, especially because we have always fallen down a few picks in the last couple of years (remember when we were supposed to be the first pick and fell down to #4?). Watching Tyreke Evans-Anthony Davsis-Demarcus Cousins would be so fun and would most likely lead to a lot of success for many years to come in Sacramento .....

I am not expecting the Sacramento Kings to win the lottery. If we do win, the Cleveland Cavaliers have the rights to our pick as we do owe them a 2012 1st round pick (Protected 1-to-14 in 2012, 1-to-13 in 2013, 1-to-12 in 2014, 1-to-10 from 2015-2017) because of the Omri Casspi - JJ Hickson swap we made in the summer of 2011.

With DUKE's early exit in the NCAA Tournament, I am intrigued if the likes of Austin Rivers and the Plumlee siblings will enter the draft.
