Nevada Wolfpack star forward Luke Babbitt could be taken in the top 10 of next week’s NBA Draft.
Babbitt didn’t garner much attention during the past season, partly because he plays for a mid-major team out West. He is a former McDonald’s All-American, so it’s not like he was an unknown slouch coming out of high school.
