<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">BRAD Newley, one Australia's hottest shooting guard prospects since Andrew Gaze, has revealed he's going to nominate for the NBA draft in July. In a bid to boost his chances of getting selected in the draft, the 21-year-old Boomer will set up a training base in the United States shortly after the Commonwealth Games. Once Newley finalises an agent to represent him, several private individual workouts will be arranged with the NBA teams that are showing considerable interest in the 199cm athletic backcourt rising star. "At the moment I intend to nominate for the draft," Newley said. "I'm probably going to go over to the States in late April-early May to work out for a few particular teams. "I can't really say who yet because nothing is concrete and I have to really decide on who I want to be my agent first. "That's a tough process and I haven't really made my mind up yet but I'm talking to a few." Since a scout for the Los Angeles Lakers turned up in Townsville to watch Newley in action for the Crocodiles, he has felt like every move he makes, every shot he takes the NBA is watching. </div> Source
