(New York, NY) - Well the U.S. economy has its newest group of millionaires. Led by #1 overall pick Richard Byford out of Wisconsin, this year's class of NBA draft picks was rounded out with 31 underclassmen who just couldn't resist the global stage of the NBA. This year's draft included 15 point guards, 14 shooting guards, 8 small forwards, 13 power forwards and 10 centers.

So 31 out of 60 players drafted were underclassmen.  How does that shake out with the real world stats?   Seems high to me.

well, 2 first-round picks were seniors (plumlee and hill), the rest were underclassmen (21) or foreign (7).

I actually looked at this about a month ago. There are less EEs in the HD than in real life. But I think the # should be even lower for the sake of the game.
