2011 NBA Draft: Is Josh Selby's Stock on the Rise After Pre-Draft Workouts?

Prior to the start of the 2010-11 NCAA Basketball season, there was a lot of hype surrounding Kansas freshman Josh Selby.

After sitting his first nine games as a Jayhawk due to NCAA violations, Selby kicked off his season with a bang by scoring 21 points against USC.  He scored 18 in Kansas's next game against California.

Things went downhill from there and Selby ended up averaging just 7.9 points per game for the season.

Before the season started, Selby was projected as a lottery pick in this year's draft.  Right now, he's barely projected as a first-round bubble pick and many have him going in the second round.

But ESPN Draft expert Chad Ford has recently tweeted that young guard's stock may be rising again.  Apparently, he's looking very good in some pre-draft workouts.

If he keeps working hard through the combine, he may find himself back in the lottery.
