Five players to watch at No. 17
Bobby PortisKevon LooneyR.J. HunterRashad VaughnBucks general manager John Hammond said the team has five players targeted at the No. 17 spot in Thursday's draft. There is always the chance of a trade, but if the Bucks stay at No. 17, these players may be on that list:
BOBBY PORTIS,
6-11, 240, SOPH., PF,
ARKANSAS
Portis is one of the sleepers in this year's draft after emerging as a sophomore and being named
Southeastern Conference player of the year. His
versatility appeals to the Bucks, and director of scouting Billy McKinney said Portis has the ability to play at center and power
forward. Portis idolized Kevin Garnett while growing up in Little Rock, Ark.
