Please delete if this isn't allowed, but I'm hoping just small snippets from insider are allowed:

13. Dion Waiters, G, Syracuse

Selected by: Robin Lopez

"We need a guy who can provide instant offense, a guy who can take the ball in his hands and score on his terms from the perimeter," says Suns center Lopez. "We just didn't have anyone quite like that coming off the bench this year." [Waiters averaged 12.6/2.3/2.5 last season.]


16. Fab Melo, C, Syracuse

Selected by: Patrick Patterson

"Plain and simple: He's a seven-footer who can defend the rim," Patterson says about the Syracuse sophomore, who had the eighth highest block percentage in the nation last year. "He has room to grow offensively in the NBA, but he's a quality young big at a position of need for us."


20. Kris Joseph, F, Syracuse

Selected by: Wilson Chandler

"He is long, athletic and can really shoot the ball," says Nuggets forward Chandler about Joseph, who averaged 13.4 ppg and 4.7 rpg. "Also, he fits in defensively with the athletes we have.''

Have we ever sent 3 kids to the NBA in one year? Outside chance of 4.

1986, but that included a 3rd rounder.
