Bernard James

Florida State senior (6-10, 230)

James won't be your average rookie if he makes an NBA team: He's already 27, having served six years in the Air Force (including three deployments to the Middle East) before spending two years at Tallahassee Community College and another two as a defensive anchor and high-percentage shooter down low for Florida State. If he goes undrafted, James could get a look as a training-camp invitee thanks to his strength, athleticism and shot-blocking ability.
