Many of these guys are seniors that had good college careers, but may or may not cut it for the next level.

Portsmouth Invitaional rosters - The Portsmouth Invitational is going on its 52nd year. It is basically a few games for the good college seniors in the country to play themselves into the NBA. Many scouts will be there to witness some of the players raise their draft stock.

Player stats Draft Status
Nigel Dixon stats Beast in the paint. However his weight is a big concern.
Luis Flores stats Dynamic scorer but is a SG in a PG's body. 
Bryant Matthews stats Good rebounder and scorer, but his perimeter skills have been questioned.  
Timmy Bowers stats Very undersized at SG a bit of a tweener. Has PG skills but not a pure point. 
Jamar Smith stats Great senior season but is truly on the bubble in terms of getting drafted. 
Blake Stepp stats Rhythm shooter but questions about his athletic ability has been a concern
Dijon Thompson stats Decent at every aspect at the game but not good in any particular area. 
Marcus Melvin stats Strong finish to his career and showed he could dominate in the paint and rebound aggresively. 
Desmon Farmer stats Good college player but never led his team to success.
Tony Bobbitt stats Very intelligent player. Will still need a great performance at Portsmouth to be considered.
Andre Barrett stats Great career but many say he is too small to play in the NBA. numbers speak for themselves though. 
Royal Ivey stats A decent PG. his speed leaves something to be desired. 
Brandon Mouton stats digressed senior year. Many wanted to see more out of him.s
Julius Page stats Poor numbers and too short to play SG but jaw dropping athleticism. 
Taliek Brown stats

Pure point guard who was a good contributor in the tourney. Bad shooting has really affected his chance of making the league.

Justin Reed stats Good college career but is a little undersized and didn't play for a major school by college basketball standards. 
Ricky Minard stats Good shooter and scorer but is undersized at SG 
Erik Daniels stats Good all around intelligent player who is a good post passer. A little undersized at PF and not enough skills to play SF. 
Marvin Lewis stats great 3 pt shooter that had a good tournament. Needs good play at Portsmouth. 
Gerald Fitch stats great college career but he is too undersized to play SG 
Marcus Moore stats down year scoring wise but is still a big and tall ball distributor. 
James Thomas stats Stats cut in half leaving many people to ask, what happened? 
Bernard Robinson Jr. stats Do it all small forward, very long, but if he ever makes it to the league he will play SF 
Amit Tamir  stats senior year was a disappointment and he is a little too slow to play PF

Pape Sow  stats athletic mobile big man with upside but nobody really knows about him 
Andre Brown  stats strong athletic big man that does not shy away from physical contact. 
Jeff Graves  stats numbers aren't what tell the story. Graves is suprising to watch. 
Sean Finn  stats Big man with game. Must impress scouts at Portsmouth to be considered. 
David Hawkins stats one of the country's top scorers, but shooting % and height play a factor. 
Charles Gaines  stats averaging a near double-double for 2 years, but has gone unnoticed. 
Rolando Howell stats top rated prospect in highschool, hasn't lived up to his potential.  
Rashad Wright stats Proved that he could score more if he was a little less unselfish. 
Jackson Vroman stats free throw shooting is bad but he is a good big man prospect. 
Derrick Tarver stats high percentage shooter that puts up incredible stats.
