Posted Apr 24, 2009
Ty Lawson made the right decision to leave early. His stock may be a little higher than last year which should get him drafted within his goal of top 15. Wayne Ellington may have made the right decision. No player played better in March and early April than Ellington. His shot was money but he showed improvement in areas that NBA folks felt he needed to improve in - defense and rebounding. (WRAL Sports Fan)
