Draft speculation to end at last
By Matt Woodruff
The question will finally be answered.
The 1996 National Basketball Association draft will be held today and the No.1 pick will finally be revealed to fans.
Barring a trade, the Philadelphia 76ers will have the first pick from this year's class. Most coaches and scouts believe the Sixers will select either former Georgetown point guard Allen Iverson or former Massachusetts power forward Marcus Camby.
"I think Iverson will probably go first this year," said Pat Williams, general manager of the Orlando Magic. "I don't know if that means he's the best, but he fits what Philadelphia needs."
"I think that of all the players in the draft, Iverson is the most ready," said Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson. "He will have the most immediate impact."
Iverson is the quickest player in this year's draft, and his shooting range and defense have drawn comparisons to NBA legend Isiah Thomas.
forward in the NBA.
There are some concerns that the 6-foot-11, 220 lb. Camby, who will be leaving Massachusetts a year early, lacks the size needed to play power
"Camby will be pushed around some,"Sampson said.
Sampson said Camby had trouble with bigger players, such as Bryant Reeves, a former Oklahoma State player.
A record number of underclassmen have declared themselves eligible for this year's draft. With so many players coming out early, NBA teams are spending more time and money on scouting operations.
"The top picks are all very young, and there are a lot more concerns about maturity and players not being emotionally ready," Williams said. "Now NBA teams are having to develop players like colleges did a few years ago."
"It certainly affects the competition," Sampson said. "I think it has a domino effect from the NBA all the way down to high school because kids are worrying about basketball and not focusing on going to school and learning to become a good person."
College coaches also feel the effects of their best players leaving before their senior year.
Sampson said guys like Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant, who each went straight from high school to the NBA, were sending the wrong message about what's more important: academics and not athletics.
Coaches and scouts say there are three players from the Big Eight Conference—all of them guards—who have a strong chance of getting drafted. Ryan Minor of Oklahoma is picked to go the highest, followed by Jaron Boone and Erick Strickland of Nebraska.
"This is not a particularly strong year for the Big Eight," Williams said. "Minor should go somewhere in the twenties, and I think Jaron Boone will probably be drafted."
Nebraska basketball coach Danny Nee feels good about Boone's and Strickland's chances.
"They're certainly good enough to be drafted," Nee said. "But as far as what number they'll be selected, we'll just have to wait and see."
Although Minor is still projected to be a top 25 pick, people have said that after an outstanding junior year, Minor actually hurt his draft status by staying for his senior year.
"I think there may be some validity to that," Sampson said. "But I think Ryan would make the same choice if he had it to do over again."
"Right now the NBA is trying to limit what a player can make in his first three years, so it really hasn't cost him any money," he said. "He can make up for whatever happens by having a great tryout."
NBA draft could be youngest ever
By Chris Sheridan AP basketball writer
The players keep getting younger, with possibly 20 underclassmen, including high schoolers, going in the first round. Can junior high be far behind? A look at today's possible NBA draft picks:
1. Philadelphia — Allen Iverson, guard, Georgetown. After a hard look at Stephon Marbury, Sixers rookie General Manager Brad Greenberg chooses the quicker of the two point guards. And Iverson, more than Marbury, looks for his own shot.
2. Toronto — Shareef Abdur-
Rahim, forward, California. GM
Isiah Thomas passes on Marcus Camby, who looked like a lock for the Raptors a week ago, and takes the first freshman to win player of the year honors in the Pac-10.
3. Vancouver — Marbury, guard,
Georgia Tech. General Manager Stu
Jackson would prefer Abdur-Rahim,
but he may be gone. In that case,
Jackson picks Marbury or Camby.
4. Milwaukee — Camby, forward, Massachusetts. The college player of the year is too good to pass up for General Manager Mike Dunleavy and coach Chris Ford, even though they have Vin Baker and Glenn Robinson at forward. The Buckes would prefer Marbury.
5. Minnesota — Ray Allen, guard,
Connecticut. The best off-guard in the draft fits with the Wolves, who still need a point guard and tried to swap picks with the Grizzlies so they could get Marbury.
6. Boston — Erick Dampier, center, Mississippi State. The Celtics traded Eric Montross last week to move up to No. 6, and they need a center with Burk's bulk. 6-foot-11, 265 pounds. The pick could be traded for an established center.
7. L.A. Clippers — Antoine Walker, forward, Kentucky. Based on history, chances are the Clips will trade the pick for a solid player with one year left on his contract who will leave as a free agent next summer.
