How does one go from averaging 3.4 points and 3.3 rebounds per game to the first round of the NBA Draft?

Ask Daniel Orton and he'll tell you even he doesn't know.

But Orton likely will hear his name called later this month at the draft and by most accounts, Orton will be a first-rounder.  All this despite not playing significant minutes in two years.

NBA teams are fond of selecting players on potential and Orton is one such player.
