Early-Entry Withdrawal Deadline: Final List

Early-Entry Withdrawal Deadline: Final List
Jun 16, 2008, 01:31 pm
NBA's official list is right here


-According to Danilo Gallinari's official website:

"After some workouts and having carefully evalued any opportunity for his career, Danilo Gallinari decided to attend the 2008 NBA Draft. In this very moment Danilo and his father are in Los Angeles, waiting to be joined by the rest of the family."

Gallinari will work out for the Minnesota Timberwolves later this week, according to sources close to the situation.

-Rodrigue Beaubois- French point guard Rodrigue Beaubois will pull his name out of the draft, according to his agent Bill McCandless. Beaubois did not receive a promise in the first round, and thus preferred not to risk anything considering his excellent situation in Cholet next year. He canceled his workouts with Seattle and Cleveland. Fellow French early-entry prospect Luc Louves has withdrawn as well according to McCandless.

-Jonas Jerebko- Has withdrawn his name from the draft, according to his agent Doug Neustadt.

-C.J. Giles will keep his name in the draft, agent Bill Kent told DraftExpress.

- Chris Douglas-Roberts of Memphis will reportedly keep his name in the draft and hire agent Leon Rose.

-Ty Lawson will be returning to North Carolina, according to a source close to the situation.

-Ante Tomic is staying in the draft, according to his agent Marc Cornstein.

-Jeremy Pargo has withdrawn his name from the draft, according to a source close to the situation.

-Alexis Ajinca and Nicolas Batum will keep their name in the draft, according to agent Jeremy Medjana.

-Richard Hendrix will be keeping his name in the draft and signing with an agent, according to sources.

-Serge Ibaka will be keeping his name in the draft according to agent Andy Miller.

-The last three big unknowns are Ryan Anderson, Chase Budinger, and Lester Hudson. Budinger is currently working out for the Sacramento Kings.

-Robert Vaden has decided to return to school, according to an NBA scout.

-According to Jeff Goodman of Fox Sports, Bill Walker is in, while Ron Steele, Robert Dozier and AJ Abrams are out.

-Ryan Anderson is staying in the draft, according to a source close to the situation.

-Giorgi Shermadini has pulled his name out of the draft, according to his agent Todd Ramasar.

-Lester Hudson will be returning to school, according to his friend Ruben Webber. Webber said that teams told Hudson he would be drafted anywhere from 35-50, but that he preferred not to roll the dice and instead opted to return and get his degree. In Hudson's mind, the worst-case scenario is he goes in the same range next year, and there is always the upside of being able to crack the first round of a weaker draft with his degree in hand. Tennessee-Martin will be playing stronger competition next season than they did this year, including games against Southern Cal and Tennessee.

-Chase Budinger has withdrawn his name from the draft, according to an NBA executive with knowledge of the situation. Budinger conducted the process strangely from what we could gather, opting to work out for numerous teams who were well ahead of his draft range, such as the Knicks (#6), Clippers (#7) and Kings (#15)—and thus likely did not have the type of information he needed to make an informed decision. He will be returning to a situation in Arizona where he will have no chance but step up and have a great year, which puts a lot of pressure on him, but also will tell us a great deal about the kind of player he is. He will likely start off the year as a projected lottery pick and preseason All-American.

-Luke Winn of SI.com is reporting that UCLA’s Luc Richard Mbah a Moute is surprisingly keeping his name in the draft, despite the fact that he may not hear his name called in either rounds of the draft on June 26th.

-Maccabi Tel Aviv’s Omri Casspi has withdrawn his name from the draft, likely after not finding a promise from any team in the first round. Casspi is in a great situation to excel in the Euroleague with Maccabi next year, and should make a strong run to be drafted in the first round.

-Turns out that Derrick Caracter withdrew his name from the draft a few days ago, as he told the Louisville Courier-Journal. Caracter is in summer school and wants Coach Pitino to give him another chance. If anything, this should be an interesting story to follow, as it’s hard to pass up on a player with Caracter’s size and skill, but it’s also difficult to put up with the head-aches he brings.

-Jeff Goodman, the man who never sleeps, is reporting that Josh Akognon is going back to school.

-The Spanish website Solobasket is reporting that Pamesa Valencia forward Victor Claver has withdrawn his name from the draft.

-A source tells us that Ronalds Zakis of Ventspils has removed his name.
