2006 NBA Draft Prospects

Underclassmen Who Have Declared

Albhabetical Final List
  • LaMarcus Aldridge 6-10/245 (Texas-sophomore)
    Of the big names, he might be the most ready to contribute, and that could mean a number one selection.
  • Renaldo Balkman 6-8/215 (South Carolina-junior)
  • Will Blalock 6-0/190 (Iowa State-junior)
  • Josh Boone 6-10/237 (Connecticut-junior)
  • Ronnie Brewer 6-6/217 (Arkansas-junior)
    He's looking to break into the lottery.
  • Shannon Brown 6-4/200 (Michigan State-junior)
  • Derek Burditt 6-7 (Blinn College,TX-sophomore)
  • Travis DeGroot 6-4/200 (Delta State-junior)
  • Guillermo Diaz 6-2-190 (Miami-junior)
  • Quincy Douby 6-3/175 (Rutgers-junior)
  • Mike Efevberha 6-5/195 (Cal-State Northridge -junior)
  • Jordan Farmar 6-2/170 (UCLA-sophomore)
  • Thomas Gardner 6-5/180 (Missouri-junior)
  • Rudy Gay 6-8/220 (Connecticut-sophomore)
    He's probably played himself into the lottery, but his stock goes up and down pretty quickly.
  • Daniel Gibson 6-2/190 (Texas-sophomore)
  • LeShawn Hammett 6-0/175 (St. Francis, PA-junior)
  • Tedric Hill 6-10 (Gulf Coast CC,FL-sophomore)

  • Alexander Johnson 6-9/230 (Florida State-junior)
  • David Johnson 6-7 (Clinton JC,SC-sophomore)
  • Mark Konecny 6-10 (Lambuth University,TN-junior)
  • Kyle Lowry 6-0/185 (Villanova-sophomore)
  • Paul Millsap 6-8/245 (Louisiana Tech-junior)
  • Matt Mitchell 6-0 (Southern University-New Orleans-junior)
  • Adam Morrison 6-8/220 (Gonzaga-junior)
    He's still my favorite to contribute the most and quickest out of the class, but right now all I can say is that he will be picked in the top 5.
  • Patrick O'Bryant 7-0/205 (Bradley-sophomore)
    If you are looking to go big, it might as well be him. Looking like a lottery pick.
  • Danilo (J.R.) Pinnock 6-5/207 (George Washington-junior)
  • Leon Powe 6-8/245 (California-sophomore)
  • Rajon Rondo 6-2/170 (Kentucky-sophomore)
  • Cedric Simmons 6-10/233 (North Carolina State-sophomore)
  • Marcus Slaughter 6-8/213 (San Diego State-junior)
  • Curtis Stinson 6-3/205 (Iowa State-junior)
  • Tyrus Thomas 6-9/218 (LSU-freshman)
    He's a raw prospect, but his upside (oh no not that awful word) makes him a contender for the number one pick.
  • P.J. Tucker 6-5/220 (Texas-junior)
  • Darius Washington Jr. 6-3/195 (Connecticut-sophomore)
  • Marcus Williams 6-2/200 (Connecticut-junior)
    One of the top 2 PG prospects in the draft, and will probably be a lottery pick.
  • Shawne Williams 6-9/225 (Memphis-freshman)

Under 21 International Players

  • Pape-Philippe Amago (France) 6-1/175
  • Andrea Bargnani (Italy) 6-10/240
    He's the hottest property in the draft right now, and should go top 3. Dirk? Gasol? Why not?
  • Lior Eliyahu (Israel) 6-9/225
  • Joel Freeland (England) 6-11/225
  • Damir Markota (Croatia) 6-10/225
  • Oleksiy Pecherov (Ukraine) 7-0/232

Seniors

by rank
  1. JJ Redick 6-4/190 (Duke)
    You can't tell me thats he's not ready and won't be able to contribute to a lottery team.
  2. Brandon Roy 6-5/195 (Washington)
    Many scouts think he is the top senior in the draft.
  3. Shelden Williams 6-9/250 (Duke)
    He's one of the safer picks amongst the big men.
  4. Randy Foye 6-3/205 (Villanova)
    He's probably the best PG prospect in the draft. It just depends on what teams wants to go that way first.
  5. Rodney Carney 6-7/205 (Memphis)
    He has an NBA body, and a lot of the right tools to make an impression in the NBA, but typically this type of player's draft position is hard to predict.
