    From ESPN Insider... "1. Darko Milicic, PF/C, Yugoslavia The line: 7-0, 245, 17 years old The skinny: He's dominant. Like Dirk Nowitzki, he has the full complement of skills. He can handle, shoot the 3 and play in the paint. Unlike Nowitzki, he's tough as nails. A strong defender who gets aggressive in the post. He has the potential, if he fills out, to be a legit center in the league. He's the consensus No. 2 pick in the draft if the league lets him in, a question because of his age. He'll be 18 in time for the June 26 draft, but not in time to apply for the draft, a distinction that is causing some consternation.

    2. Sofaklis Schortsianides, C, Greece The line: 6-11, 285, 17 years old The skinny: Nicknamed Baby Shaq by his teammates in Greece, he's very strong and capable of playing with his back to the basket. Several teams compared him to a more aggressive, motivated Eddy Curry. He's a likely top five pick in the draft if the league lets him in (see Milicic, Darko)."
