Wright decision

Brandan Wright declared for the draft a couple of days ago, but has not yet hired an agent. However, he will likely stay in, and here's why: When a player declares for the draft, they do so (in most cases) to see where they will fall; will they be a lottery pick, a first rounder, or will they go undrafted? If the prognosis is good, the player stays in.
Because Wright could go as high as #3, chances are that he will stay in the draft. My sources tell me that he could slip to as low as #9, behind Greg Oden, Kevin Durant, Al Horford, Julian Wright, Yi Jianlian, Mike Conley Jr., Corey Brewer, and a Spencer Hawes or Jeff Green. That is unlikely, though.
Brandan is as good as gone.
