Trey Burke reported to be invited to NBA Draft Day Green Room
...and the sun comes up in the East, I know.
There are 10 Players invited to the draft day green room; the list is in the link:

"Those invited are: Nerlens Noel (Kentucky); Victor Oladipo (Indiana); Otto Porter (Georgetown);Alex Len (Maryland); Anthony Bennett (UNLV); Ben McLemore (Kansas); Trey Burke (Michigan);Michael Carter-Williams (Syracuse); C.J. McCollum (Lehigh) and Cody Zeller (Indiana)." - from CBSSports.com
I was actually reading another article when this went up. Above is the rest of the list, but I believe they typically invite a few more as well, so it works out to be about 15 players that get invited, as I understand this - according to ESPN, Kelly Olynyk, Shabazz Muhammad and a few others would be on that list too. It seems pretty safe to say that Burke and most if not all of these players will probably go as lottery picks. Congratulations to Try on what is a vote of confidence by the league and yet another honor.
I hope Trey falls to the Pistons at #8. The sad thing is, they'd probably pass on him and pick Cody Zeller. That would be the absolute worst. Either way, I hope Trey gets to start his career in the right situation and continue to prove some of the haters wrong. The people that think he is too small and/or not athletic enough to warrant such lofty draft status. It should be a great night!
would the Pistons draft Cody Zeller?
U of M will have 2 players invited next year
