NBA D-League Hopefuls Participate in Camp

May 27 -- The D-League Pre-Draft Camp will be held June 27-29 at The Suwanee Sports Academy in Suwanee, GA. Anyone age 18 or older can register to participate. Of those who apply, 200 will be invited to attend.

Everyone from D-League scouts to coaches to league brass will be in attendance (as will some NBA scouts). When the camp ends, a few lucky participants will be added to the player pool from which the league conducts its own draft in November.

Last season, 20 players from the camp were drafted. One of them, Ramon Dyer, played in all 50 games with the Albuquerque Thunderbirds.

The D-League operates its camp in similar fashion to the NBA's camp, held each May in Orlando. Players are put through a variety of drills and placed on a team, guaranteeing them at least two games to strut their stuff.

Former NBA center and current D-League coach Sean Rooks will be among those providing direction.
