    Early entry candidates have until June 17 to pull out of the June 24 draft. If he keeps his name in the draft, one player who could interest the Nuggets is 7-foot-1 French center Johan Petro, who looked good in Treviso.

    Petro, 18, is a player the Nuggets could keep overseas for a year or two. The Nuggets have the 20th pick.
    "He was interesting," said Fredman, whose team got a look at Petro in a private workout against center Pavel Podkolzine, a likely lottery pick. "He was intriguing. He's athletic. He's probably not ready now for the NBA, but he has upside."

    What do you all think of this guy? He might be able to help out in a year, but are you guys fond of international projects?

    International Projects are like pieces of coal in high temperature ovens. In due time, they will be all worth the wait.
