NBAdraft.net has Nassir Little at No. 7 in the first round. Fellow freshman Coby White is the projected fifth pick and is likely to go, too. Mock drafts often have players rated higher than they are eventually drafted. They can drop after working out for pro teams, or foreigners can sneak into the first round. Hopefully, Little will remain a lottery pick in the top 14 on raw potential alone. (Chapelboro.com)
