Sixteen Top Prospects invited to Draft Green Room

The following is a look at the 16 top NBA Draft prospects that have been invited to New York. This means that these players figure to go among the top 20 picks in the draft. The league has worked hard to avoid a repeat of the Rashard Lewis incident of seven years ago, when the Houston prep star sat in the green room throughout the entire first round waiting for his name to be called. Maciej Lampe also waited for his name to be announced until he was the top pick in the second round in 2003.

The players are Andrew Bogut, Raymond Felton, Channing Frye, Danny Granger, Gerald Green, Yaroslav Korolev, Sean May, Rashad McCants, Chris Paul, Fran Vazquez, Charlie Villanueva, Hakim Warrick, Martell Webster, Deron Williams, Marvin Williams and Antoine Wright. McCants is expected to be the last player selected in the group.
