It's the Wright time
Posted Apr 24, 2007
Night after night, North Carolina freshman Brandan Wright lay in his bed, weighing the positives and negatives of leaving early for the NBA. In the end, the positives won out -- by at least $2.5 million. If Wright is taken in the top five in the draft on June 28, as projected, he would earn between $2.548 million and $3.885 million in his first season.
