Chris Paul of Wake Forest was completely shut down by Nelson and West of St. Josephs tonight. Paul has been getting a lot of buzz lately and was being listed a lottery pick by some people such as Draft City. Nelson has his detractors, but this game may help him get into the lottery.
Gordon of U Conn may get some added attention after playing extremely well (20 points and 9 rebounds) in their domination of Vanderbilt. However, Alabama may be the most athletic team U. Conn has faced so Gordon will an even bigger challenge.
Okafor had some turnovers and was disappointed in his performance, but he anchored a sufficating defense.
Warrick of Syracuse did not advance his case for a high draft position as the Orangemen were completely outplayed by Alabama. "Hakim Warrick managed just four in the last 20 minutes after a 15-point first half for Syracuse".

Tonight Deng on Duke will get a chance to showcase his skills against Illinois. Deng is widely considered a strong prospect to be taken by the Charlott Bobcats with their #4 pick, but a bad game could hurt his prospects.
