SI.com's Early Look NBA Mock Draft

I wonder if Avery is having second thoughts? I know it's still early, but this is the 3rd mock I've seen with him being left out of the first round.

I don't know it seems that all of these self proclaimed experts have different

drafts anyways. I saw last night watching the lottery that Jay Bilas has Avery as his 14th best available prospect. I guess all it takes is one team liking him ala Tebow.

Sports is man's joke on God, You see, God says to man, 'I've created a universe where it seems like everything matters, where you'll have to grapple with life and death and in the end you'll die anyway, and it won't really matter.' So man says to God, 'Oh, yeah? Within your universe we're going to create a sub-universe called sports, one that absolutely doesn't matter, and we'll follow everything that happens in it as if it were life and death.'" - Sam Kellerman

I think he goes to a contending team late in the round

He’s not ready for prime time, but he has tons of upside. A few years ago he’d have rotted on the bench, but with the Developmental League an option, he could get a taste of the big time but also get some needed PT. Sure would have been nice to get a second year, but I’m sure Kentucky feels the same way with that horde of freshmen they lost.

Which begs the question: How do you have four of the top 10, 15 players in the draft and not reach the Final Four?
