More star power in 2012 NBA draft
Posted Jun 25, 2011
Next year, the Tar Heels figure to have sophomore Harrison Barnes, junior John Henson, senior Tyler Zeller and, possibly, freshman James McAdoo as probable first-rounders. Duke's Austin Rivers, a freshman, and junior Mason Plumlee along with N.C. State sophomore C.J. Leslie could be first-rounders, too, if they choose to enter the draft.
