A total of 48 hopefuls will be begging for their names to be called. This year's draft class is headed by RP guard Gabe Norwood, University of Hawaii standout Jared Dillinger, guards Sol Mercado and Kevin Dalafu, and 6 foot 5 Rob Reyes.

My shot: Looking at the draft class, it's definitely not that deep especially in terms of big men. I believe only a few from this batch will be drafted. Teams might even pass out already come 2nd round.
