Both young men were McDonald's All-Americans who went to the University of Texas and were selected in the first round (Thompson to the Cleveland Cavaliers and Joseph to the San Antonio Spurs).

The two guys at the top Blake was speaking of are, of course, Duke point guard Kyrie Irving, expected to be selected No. 1 overall by the rebuilding Cleveland Cavaliers, and Arizona forward Derrick Williams, perhaps the best pure player in the process. The Cavs will be making the number one selection for the fourth time in franchise history and Irving figures to join Austin Carr (1971), Brad Daugherty (19
