2. (50) DeVon Hardin, C
The Sonics felt the need to draft another big man and that’s why they selected center DeVon Hardin out of California. The 22-year old has nice size at 6′11″, 250 pounds and he plays a big man’s game close to the basket. Hardin played in 101 games (80 starts) at California and he averaged 7.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, 0.4 assists and 1.3 blocked shots per game. Look for the Sonics to bring around Hardin slowly as they have time to let him develop.
