Rush-ing to the NBA

Well the first round of the 2008 NBA draft was filled with elation and disappointment for Jayhawk fans around the nation.

Brandon Rush was drafted at number 13, to the Portland Trailblazers. This means that he was selected as a lottery pick in this year's draft! Congrats to B. Rush!

Now on to more disappointing news. After Darrell Arthur announced that he would return to the University of Kansas if he wasn't going to be in the top 16 drafted this year, I am just hoping that he gets drafted in the first round. At this time, Houston is making the 25th pick in the first round, and Arthur's name has not been announced yet.

And beyond Arthur's late blooming in the draft, Mario Chalmers has not been picked up yet either.

Hopefully both of these talented young athletes make it to NBA teams during the first round.

Only time will tell!

Rock Chalk.
