    Although the cut-off date for Early Entry was last Saturday, the NBA isn't putting out an official list until this coming Wednesday. The delay is because the "entries" only had to be post marked by the cut-off date listed above. Given that McRoberts is staying at Duke, hopefully there won't be a delay for the deliveries of Bagnani and Splitter. :D

    Note that 6/18 remains about who remains.

    Noted. However, you have to "enter" before you can "withdraw"! ;)

    A lot of the "entry" has to do guesstimates of where said player may be drafted. IIRC, in the case of Splitter (among others) it has to be high enough so he can contribute to his Tau buyout.
