The Milwaukee Bucks selected Jerald Honeycutt with the tenth pick of the second round of the 1997 NBA Draft. In the 21 years since then, not a single Tulane player has been selected in the NBA's annual player lottery. And in the draft's 70-year history, the Green Wave has never had a player picked in the first round.
Melvin Frazier might end both droughts this summer.
The Green Wave's junior forward is considering the NBA and said Tuesday he might forgo his final season of eligibility at Tulane and enter the draft.
He is currently projected as a late first-, early second-round prospect in what is considered a top-heavy NBA Draft.
