31. Portland Trail Blazers (from Kings) Jeff Pendergraph from Arizona
Trade Announced: Dallas trades B.J. Mullens for Rodrige Beaubois and a future 2nd-round pick

Trade Announced: L.A. to New York swap of 29th pick.

I like Cunningham but I expected him to be an option at 55. I’m really surprised Calathes wasn’t the pick.

If Portland wanted to stash anyone overseas with its first-round pick, Nick Calathes should've been it.
Once Calathes contract with Panathinaikos ends after the 2011-2012 season, he could’ve come over and potentially replaced Rudy Fernandez if he left after his rookie contract.

Cunningham was singled out by Pritchard on multiple occasions today for his good workout, his 4 year college career, his NBA readiness and his toughness. Had he not worked out with both Hansbrough and Pendergraph, he might have been a show stealer. Like Brown, Cunningham showed steady statistical improvements throughout his college careeer and is known for his interior game, which seems like a big plus in the Blazers’ eyes this year. He’s slightly smaller than both Pendergraph and Hansbrough and given the reputation those guys carry with them I think he slots in below both of them. Nevertheless, Cunningham is definitely a name to remember.

from DX snippet
Cunningham is a tremendously active player who brings a lot of hustle to the court; this is pretty evident on the defensive side of the ball. He is constantly on the move looking to make things happen and has shown both solid anticipation and great timing. Cunningham’s lateral quickness is good enough that he is able to step away from the basket and cover perimeter players without being a liability to his team, and in fact forces a fair number of turnovers with his on the ball pressure.

True...I never understood the crazy for Blair crowd.
Mostly due to the fact I never saw him play. I’ve seen Brockman play in person multiple times and on tv quite a bit. Brockman doesn’t have any transferable skills.
