    Illinois' James Augustine didn't help himself at the NBA's predraft camp, but his stock didn't drop. He still looks like a late first-round or early second-round pick in the June 28 draft.


    The 6-foot-10-inch forward had a solid game with 11 points and 11 rebounds earlier in the week but was average the rest of the way. Augustine was at a slight disadvantage. He thrives in a team setting, and the camp is geared toward showcasing individual skills.

    "Right now, the reason I'll be able to play in the NBA is because of my energy and rebounding ability, and I'm able to run the floor," he said. "The rest of it will come."

    Before camp began Tuesday, Augustine had completed 10 individual workouts. He said he will audition for the Suns and the Bulls next week.</div>
