THE NBA DRAFT, ACC RECAP
Not sure why the title of this entry is all-caps, but… well… too lazy to fix it. In any event, the ACC had a very good NFL draft, with 9 players drafted in the first round. The first round of the NBA draft went pretty well too, with 7 of the first 30 selections coming from the ACC. Overall, 12 of the 60 selections were ACC… exactly 20%. Given that 14 players were from foreign countries, that means that 12 of 46–selections were ACC, more than 25%. Not too shabby. Nicely done, ACC!
