    Orlando Pre-Draft Camp: Unofficial List

    Sunday, May 20, 2007, 08:06 AM EST [General]

    The NBA's goal in pushing back the date of the Orlando Pre-Draft camp was to try and get more of the fringe first-round guys to participate.

    It hasn't exactly worked.

    The NBA has, according to sources, invited 10 players down for "physicals". These are considered the likely lottery picks who could only hurt their draft stock by playing in Orlando later this month.

    The following is a list of the players who, according to sources, have been invited down as "physical-only" guys:

    Greg Oden, Ohio State
    Kevin Durant, Texas
    Brandan Wright, North Carolina
    Al Horford, Florida
    Corey Brewer, Florida
    Joakim Noah, Florida
    Jeff Green, Georgetown
    Roy Hibbert, Georgetown
    Julian Wright, Kansas
    Mike Conley Jr., Ohio State
    Spencer Hawes, Washington

    While the NBA was hopeful that the next tier of prospects would choose to participate because there are fewer days to workout for teams prior to the June 28 Draft, nothing has changed.

    Guys like Nick Young, Thaddeus Young and Josh McRoberts - as well as many other players who are considered mid- and late-first round picks - have decided to sit it out.

    FOXSports.com has learned that the following underclassmen were invited, but do not intend to participate in the showcase for NBA teams, which begins on May 29.

    Nick Young, USC
    Thaddeus Young, Georgia Tech
    Josh McRoberts, Duke
    Jason Smith, Colorado State
    Arron Afflalo, UCLA
    Marcus Williams, Arizona
    Rodney Stuckey, Eastern Washington
    Wilson Chandler, DePaul
    Glen Davis, LSU
    DeVon Hardin, California

    Seniors who were invited, but have chosen not to play:

    Al Thornton, Florida State
    Nick Fazekas, Nevada
    Derrick Byars, Vanderbilt

    Here is an incomplete list of many of the 60-plus players who intend to play in Orlando:
