Ty Weighs in on the Draft
by Paul Kingston

No. 6 is moving from center to New Orleans Hornets general manager.

At least, that's what he's doing in the latest edition of ESPN the Magazine. Tyson joined a number of NBA players who were asked to decide their team's early draft picks -- hypothetically speaking, of course -- in the 2009 NBA Draft.

New Orleans has the 21st draft pick. Tyson chose: Earl Clark, a guard/forward from Louisville:

"Earl's length and energy will help us on both ends of the floor. I think he'll fit in, because we lack an explosive wing who can start a fast break," says center Tyson Chandler. "You know, I almost went with B.J. Mullens, the center from Ohio State, but I feel like we can pick up a big in free agency."
