Freshmen Overload in NBA Draft

Now that the dust has settled and the final withdrawal deadline for the NBA Draft has passed, there are still 13 freshmen who have decided to remain in the 2008 NBA Draft.
  1. Michael Beasley, Kansas State
  2. Derrick Rose, Memphis
  3. O.J. Mayo, USC
  4. Eric Gordon, Indiana
  5. DeAndre Jordan, Texas A&M
  6. Jerryd Bayless, Arizona
  7. Kevin Love, UCLA
  8. Davon Jefferson, USC
  9. Anthony Randolph, LSU
  10. Donte Greene, Syracuse
  11. J.J. Hickson, NC State
  12. Bill Walker, Kansas State
  13. Kosta Koufos, Ohio State
Last year, only 8 freshmen declared and stayed in the NBA Draft. All 8 went in the first 21 picks. That won't happen with this group, though, it is likely that at least 10 of the 13 will go in the first round.
