The 2019 NBA Draft will take place in Brooklyn on Thursday night, and when the two-round event begins, five SEC players will be in attendance.

Much like the NFL Draft, the NBA Draft features a green room, where top prospects and their families can watch the proceedings and go up on stage when their name is called.

As you can see below, Kentucky stars PJ Washington, Tyler Herro and Keldon Johnson, Vanderbilt PG Darius Garland and Georgia big man Nicolas Claxton will be in Brooklyn on Thursday:

All of those SEC stars are projected to go in Round 1, along with potentially Tennessee F Grant Williams and others.

We’ll see how the draft plays out on Thursday night, but it should be a special night for those five former SEC standouts.
