2010 Green Room Attendees
The NBA has released the names of the 15 players who have been invited to attend Thursday’s NBA Draft. None of the names come as much of a shock. But what the list does do is provide a clearer idea of who is not likely to be available to the Thunder at 21 if OKC doesn’t attempt to move up. The league does extensive research on players’ projected draft range before inviting them to the event as to ensure no one is embarrassingly sitting around forever waiting for their name to be called. On the other hand, if the Thunder trades up Thursday, it’s a safe bet that one of these 15 names will be in Oklahoma City in 2010-11.

In related news, the betting site Bodog.com has set the over/under on what pick former Kentucky center and Bishop McGuinness standout Daniel Orton will be selected with at 20 1/2. Quite interesting for all those who covet Orton at 21.
