My Top 60 Prospects for the 2011 NBA Draft

Thursday, June 23rd, 2011

By Brandon Pemberton

The NBA Draft is tonight at 7pm and here are my top 60 prospects available.  This was finally composed after watching these guys play during the past college and Euroleauge seasons.  I had help from my friend John Dimopoulos of http://www.eurojohnbball.com with scouting reports of the Euro guys.  Make sure you go checkout his site as well.  He knows his stuff.  I watch the games and I rank the players according to how I feel they will translate to the pro game and also on potential of growing once getting to the NBA.
