The Rockets are looking at the draft to find a player to complement their own Dream Team of Clyde
Drexler, Charles Barkley and Hakeem Olajuwon.
Rockets do not expect
big-name draft choice

FIOUSTON (AP) — Don’t look for the Houston
Rockets to get a shot at any immediate impact player
in Wednesday’s NBA draft, although their recent his
tory shows coach Rudy Tomjanovich’s staff can
uncover nuggets of talent out there.
Thanks to their success, the team, which this past
season made the NBA’s version of the Final Four and
then lost to Utah in the Western Conference finals,
won’t get to select until the 24th pick.
Then, they follow with the 29th overall selection
— the first pick in the second round — which they
obtained from Vancouver.
By then, however, any marquee names should be
long gone.
“When you’re at 24, you’re not at that sort of posi
tion where you can say, ‘OK, we’re in the lottery.
We’ve got these options,’’’ saysTomjanovich. “There
are some guys in the lottery who can’t even say that
this year.’’
The Rockets, though, do have some alternatives.
“There’s a whole bunch of options open,’’
Tomjanovich says. “We could combine the picks and
icrel
ispe|
try to move up or trade the first-round pick, because ^
the second-round choice we have is as good asyi
can get in that round. Also, we’ll look at Europe."
Of course, a number of other NBA teams have the
same thoughts.
“There’s not a lot going on around the leaj
except for teams wanting to get rid of their late pii
in the first round,” he says.
Houston has picked at No. 24 before, taking Sam
Cassell a few years ago. Cassell gave them a couple
good years before he was packaged as part of the deal
that brought Charles Barkley to Houston last summer
Last year, with no selection in the first round, they iptio
took forward Othella Harrington and guard
Livingston both in the second round. Both made the »elci
team although Livingston’s year was wrecked by
knee injury.
In the days leading up to this week’s M
Houston has been auditioning a number of playetsllies
including Keith Booth of Maryland, Anthony Pate
from Bradley, Paul Grant from Wisconsin andPatfo
Burke from Auburn.
Dallas counting on Nelson to unearth gen,|
mv
DALLAS (AP) — With the sixth
pick in Wednesday’s NBA draft,
Don Nelson could find the exact
player needed to begin turning
around the Dallas Mavericks.
Problem is, the pick was traded
before he was hired.
Instead, the 15th player taken
in Wednesday’s draft will be
Nelson’s first as the Mavericks
general manager. He’ll also have
the 35th choice in a draft many
say is basically a crapshoot after
slam-dunk No. 1 Tim Duncan.
Dallas’ biggest needs are for a
small forward and a backup cen
ter. However, coming off a 24-58
season that kept the Mavericks
out of the playoffs for the seventh
straight year, the team could use
help everywhere.
“We like 17 players and we’re
picking 15th,” Nelson said.
“Unless 1 find a way to really
screw up, we’ll get one of them.”
Nelson didn’t screw up his
drafts for Golden State from 1989-
92. Without a pick higher than 11
DALLAS
*Wfmavericks
and one of them going as low as
24, he took future All-Stars Tim
Hardaway, Latrell Sprewell, Chris
Gatling and Tyrone Hill.
Speculation has the Mavericks
eyeing San Jose State’s Olivier
Saint-Jean and Providence forward
Austin Croshere and Tennessee-
Chattanooga’s Johnny Taylor.
Nelson also may throw a curve and
try bulking up the frontcourt with
Tulane’s Jerald Honeycutt orfJW]
State Bakersfield’s Johnny Tayk |iptjl
Nelson is notorious)) tij>hV 'Qij]
lipped about his decision once he
makes it. But he also makes it
clear that the choice is his, forbet-
ter or worse.
“My scouts have always done
the dirty work. I’ve just been the
one not afraid to pull the chain, 1
Nelson said.
“My philosophy is simple
don’t be afraid to take a guyy
like no matter where you have
take him.”
While the Mavericks haven 1
picked this low since 1990, a
those years of higher picks haven
done much. Seven top-12 pid
since 1989 have resulted in zet
playoff wins for Dallas. Last year
top choice, Samaki Walker, is
only one still with the team.
Spurs
Continued from Page 3
“Those are tremendous elements to begin with in a
relationship with a player,” Popovich said. “He can
laugh at himself, he gets a kick out of tilings. At the
same time, when it’s time to go to work, he knows it is.”
He also likes it that Duncan, 21, remained in col
lege until graduation.
“It’s a huge plus. It shows that perseverance, that
ability to not worry too much about instant gratifica
tion, to understand ... a greater prize, a greater goal,”
Popovich said.
Under league mandates, Duncan will earn a little
more than $10 million for his initial three-year contract.
Though the Spurs reportedly received a call from
the Celtics inquiring about a trade moments after
winning the lottery, a sign of Duncan's value is
apparent in how few trade inquiries San Antonio hi
received, Popovich said.
“It just shows that people understand how goo
he is,” Popovich said, explaining it would be sens!
less to even discuss a deal unless
involved “a big-time trade.”
Already seen by some as tl
future of the San Antonio fra:
chise, Duncan will be welcomed
the city Thursday at a giant publ
pep rally in front of the Alain 1
where he’ll be presented within
team jersey.
For Spurs executives and fab
the day can’t come soon enough
“(We) went through a horrif
year, came through it with class and dignity andfc
good about that, but by no means expected to
paid back like this,” Popovich said.

games,” Groff said.
The overall state of the Big 12,
Groff said, is positive as the con

mony that several other confer
ences around the country have
developed will come with time as
