My National Championship Kansas Jayhawks had 5, count em, FIVE, players be selected in the NBA draft.

Brandon Rush, 13th pick (Portland, traded to Indiana)

Darrell Arthur, 27th (New Orleans, traded to Portland) *he slipped this far down because there were spurious and completely false allegations that he had some sort of kidney problem.. He should have been a lottery pick

Mario Chalmers, 34th pick (Minnesota, traded to Miami)

Darnell Jackson, 52nd pick (Miami)

Sasha Kaun, 56th pick (Seattle) *he has a $1 million offer to play in Russia, and he graduated with honors with a degree in computer science (and held a lucrative internship the previous two summers).

My Kansas Jayhawks saw the largest single draft from any one school (tying with Connecticut from a few years back)

It just goes to show: CHAMPIONSHIPS are helpful and CHAMPIONS are usually well-rewarded.
