Even though his NBA Draft stock has fluctuated to a degree over the last few months, Jacob Evans appears poised to be selected in the first round of the NBA Draft on Thursday. While he isn’t going to be taken in the top five or challenge for the top 10, Evans is, by all accounts, a sure thing to be taken in the later part of the first round. When he is drafted, he’ll join an elite fraternity of Cincinnati Bearcats to be taken in the draft.
There are currently 56 members of that fraternity dating back to 1950 when Dick Dallmer was selected by the Philadelphia Warriors and Jack Laub became a Baltimore Bullet.
