It didn't take long into the season for the announcements to start as we have two players who will be entering the 2010 NBL Draft. Alabama sophomore PG Andrew Steele, brother of Nets starting PG Ronald (Steele) has declared along with fellow SEC baller, C Andrew Ogilvy from Vanderbilt.
C Andrew Ogilvy, Vanderbilt - Ogilvy, a native of Australia is a complete player. He can score inside, shoot the ball, pass, rebound and block shots. He still lacks strength and isn't the quickest, so he may struggle in the NBA guarding very athletic PF's and C's. With that said, Ogilvy is a safe pick guarenteed to produce.
Stats: 22 years old, 6'10, 250 lbs
NBL Comparison: Yi Jianlian
Draft Projection: 1st round
PG Andrew Steele, Alabama - Steele is much like his brother as he brings great size to the table for a PG. He is still a little raw in the strength department, but he makes up for it with his length and ability to create havoc in passing lanes. His outside shooting isn't as good as his brother's, but he should also have more upside entering NBL as he is younger than Ron when he entered. His passing is great, but he can be prone to turnovers and he isn't a great finisher inside. He is an adequate rebounding for the position.
Stats: 21 years old, 6'3, 195 lbs
NBL Comparison: Ronald Steele
Draft Projection: 1st round
