The Rest

Rounding out the group of participants were Keifer Sykes, Greg Whittington, Daniel Mullings and fill-in Bo Barnes.

Sykes is a 5’11”, 167 guard from Green Bay. Though he’s undersized for his position, he’s extremely quick, has great jumping ability and plays with a lot of energy.

He knows how to get to the foul line (5.5 attempts per game his senior season) and averaged 18.6 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game while shooting 45.2 percent from the field and 31.1 percent from downtown. At 21 years old, Sykes will either be a second round draft pick or an undrafted prospect.

Whittington, a 6’8″ forward from Georgetown, will most likely go undrafted. He ranks No. 117 on ESPN’s Chad Ford’s Big Board, averaging 12.1 points and 7.0 rebounds per game for the Hoyas this season.

Mullings is another undersized guard (6’2″, 170 pounds), this time from New Mexico State. As a senior, he averaged 12.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 2.1 steals per game for the Aggies. He will most likely go undrafted.
