Still my least favorite thread to start every year...

The first news is that Marshall Plumlee had his rights acquired by the Nets in exchange for a high second round pick in tomorrow's draft. While these rights do last for a couple of years, this sort of trade probably means that he intends to join the team.

There are no Duke players in the draft. Sometimes NBA veterans looking to get back in the picture will enter the draft and play in the league with the hopes of showing that they still have what it takes.
