If the freshman forward leaves school after one season, these are the reasons why.
It's pretty much a consensus at this point. Draft Express has Ellenson as the #8 pick in their mock draft. ESPN.com's Chad Ford has Ellenson at #4 on his Big Board. CBS has mock drafts from both Sam Vecenie and Gary Parrish, both of whom are college basketball writers for the Eye, and they have Ellenson at #7 and #8 respectively. SB Nation's very own Ricky O'Donnell has Ellenson tabbed 5th.
If you are going to be a lottery pick, then a lot of the guess work has been taken out of it for you.
