Listen to the description of Draft Night for former LSU basketball player Glen "Big Baby" Davis on nola.com (emphasis mine in bold throughout):

For starters, sure he must have been upset at missing the first round's guaranteed contracts, but Davis had his first chance to show some maturity, but chose not to.

"Collis Temple Jr. handed Glen Davis a note as Davis addressed the media at his NBA draft party Thursday night.

Davis glanced at the card and flicked it away, his disappointment evident. "

And, it sounds like he got some bad advice from his agent....

"John Hamilton, Davis' Houston-based agent, said he was surprised at the turn of events but that Davis might still benefit. Players covet first round selections because teams are required to give three-year guaranteed contracts. Second round picks can get guaranteed deals also, but teams are not required to give them.

"Everybody gets caught up in the first round," Hamilton said. "I tried to prepare him even though two teams in the 20s guaranteed they would pick him." "

It took his mentor, Collis Temple, Jr. to sum it up for Davis:

"It's tremendous to be the 35th player picked," Temple said. "You know how hard it is to get into the NBA? He's competing with everyone in the world for 60 spots. He could easily have been 25 or 17."

I hope Davis has a career that he can look back on and realize how silly he was last night.
