    The biggest surprise of draft night was certainly the selection of Thon Maker. The loophole preps-to-pros draftee was projected to go somewhere in the 20s or even into the early second round of the draft. Instead, the Milwaukee Bucks selected him at No. 10. There were rumors throughout draft day that a team could reach on Maker much earlier than anybody was expecting. However, those weren't the only rumors about him.

    Heading into the draft, reports started getting kicked around that Maker may be well into his 20s, rather than the 19-year-old he says he is. That concern obviously didn't trouble the Bucks, who were happy to make him a part of their future. As for Maker himself, he says the rumors of his age are just that -- rumors.
