NBA Draft: Second Round Sleepers

Sessions Remaining In NBA Draft
Nevada point guard Ramon Sessions is forgoing his senior year to enter the 2007 NBA Draft. The 6-3 junior averaged 12 points and 5 assists in helping lead the Wolfpack to the NCAA Tournament.

Nevada Picks Up Top 40 Prospect
According to the Nevada Appeal, high school All-American Luke Babbitt has announced that he is going to opt out of his verbal agreement with Ohio State and attend Nevada. "Basically I had a change of heart," the 6-8 forward said. "I just decided that I wanted to stay close to home. Obviously Nevada is getting better and better, and I want to try and help them keep winning. Coach (Mark) Fox has done a great job up there, and I've always liked him. He's a great guy, and I'm looking forward to playing for him." Although Babbitt cannot sign anything official until November, he says his decision is final. "I thought about it (calling the other schools)," Babbitt said. "This is it for me. I don't want to be re-recruited. I'm sure I want to go to Nevada. I wanted to let people know as soon as possible." Babbitt is ranked No. 37 in the country by Scout.com.
