Ten Prospects Reportedly Offered Invites to NBA Draft Green Room


Each year, a select group of NBA prospects are invited to sit with their friends and family in the “green room” during the Draft. ESPN has this year’s squad: “The NBA has issued 10 preliminary invitations to its “green room” for Thursday night’s draft, according to multiple sources. 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). The top prospects in the draft usually receive the invites to the green room, where the players, their families and agent sit on draft night. When their names are called, they leave the room and go up on stage to shake commissioner David Stern’s hand.”
