Tar Heels' Marvin Williams likely Bucks' top pick


The consensus among analysts and NBA executives is that North Carolina youngster , who declared himself eligible for the draft following a freshman season in which he came off the bench for the national champion, will be the first forward selected. There's debate whether Williams, who averaged 11.3 points and 6.6 rebounds a game last season for the Tar Heels, could be the first player selected by the Milwaukee Bucks, owners of the No. 1 pick. Williams, 6-9, 230, is a multi-tool player at age 18 who has an incredible upside. (New Orleans Times-Picayune)
