The July issue of Sports Illustrated for Kids included a list of the schools that have produced the most first-round NBA draft picks.
Using that list as a guide, here's how the standings look after this year's draft:
• North Carolina and UCLA remain 1-2 on the list despite not having a player picked in the first round this year. North Carolina, which had no player drafted, is first with 31 first-round choices. UCLA, which had Dan Gadzuric taken in the second round, had 25 first-rounders.
• Duke had two first-round picks -- Jay Williams and Mike Dunleavy -- to increase its all-time total to 22, the third most.
• Tayshaun Prince enabled Kentucky to tie Michigan for fourth place with 19 first-rounders each.
