Larry Nance Jr. of Wyoming waits for NBA draft

CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Larry Nance Jr. likes his chances of becoming Wyoming's first NBA draft pick since 1995.

"From what I understand right now, I'm pretty sure I'm going to hear my named called (on draft night), but I don't know where," Nance said. "Whether I get picked or not, I think I'm highly regarded and will end up in a mini-camp and NBA summer league. But it would be a dream come true to be picked."

Some draft observers believe Nance may be climbing into the first round.

"That mock draft stuff really doesn't mean anything," Nance said.
