Will my Colorado BOY Alec Burks go higher in the NBA draft than Connecticut phenom Kemba Walker?





One draft board has Burks going at the #8 spot and Walker at the #18 spot, and yet other boards have Burks in the mid-teens. Kemba Walker has been all the talk of this NCAA tournament and that's sure to boost his stock come draft time. The only problem is that he's 6 feet tall. Burks is a MJ-like 6'6" athletic scoring type. That being said, I have a feeling that the national hype surrounding Walker will put him ahead of Burks and maybe into the top 5. If UCONN wins the tourney this coming week on the back of Walker I believe this question will be put to rest. Burks can also boost his stock by leading Colorado to the NIT championship this week. In the end, this should be an interesting toss-up of who steps up bigger this week.
