Sean May likely to join dad Scott as 1st-round NBA draft pick

Posted Jun 26, 2005

The NBA draft was but a gentle breeze when Scott May was in it 29 years ago, not even faintly resembling the windstorm his son, Sean, will face Tuesday. Sean May entered the draft after leading the Tar Heels to the national championship, and he soon will match another of his father's accomplishments by becoming a first-round draft pick.
