The Milwaukee Bucks took 6'11" power forward Larry Sanders with their first pick in last night's NBA draft.

Sanders was the 15th overall player chosen. He played college basketball at Virginia Commonwealth, where he averaged 14.4 points per game, and nine rebounds per game.

The Bucks had three picks in the second round. They took 6'7" guard Darington Hobson from New Mexico with the 37th overall pick; 7'0" center Jerome Jordan, out of Tulsa, with the 44th pick; and 6'9" power forward Keith Gallon of Oklahoma with their 47th pick. Milwaukee reportedly is considering a trade that could send one of those players elsewhere.
