    Ekpe Udoh admits at this time a year ago, being in the NBA was something he considered nothing more than an outside possibility. And the ex-Baylor basketball star never thought he’d be a lottery pick.

    “No [I never thought I’d be here]. It’s one of those things that Coach [Scott] Drew said was a possibility,” he said by phone. “We had to keep on winning and everything fell into place. It’s just a dream come true.”

    But it will be a while before he’s back on the court. Udoh had surgery to repair a torn ligament in his left wrist in July and is expected to miss about six months. That means he could make his professional debut sometime after the calendar turns to 2011.

    “I haven’t started rehabbing yet. I’m just working out, focusing on my core and trying to get stronger,” he said. “It was tough at first once it happened. But I realized, this is going to happen in my career. I’ve just got to take it and get better.”
