Which Draft Pick Could Be Traded Soon?

The draft isn't even 24 hours old and there are already as many trade rumors today as there were during the draft. So who could be on the move?

RICKY RUBIO, TIMBERWOLVES: Now Rubio says he may just stay in Spain instead of going to Minnesota, yah? Not cool. If you apply for the draft, deal with who picks you. However, it appears that the Wolves knew this could happen which makes drafting Jonny Flynn much more sensible. Rubio wants to go to a big market, but none of them (aside from the Knicks) need him. Maybe they think that Boston would be willing to talk trade for Rondo and some change?

STEPHEN CURRY, WARRIORS: Everyone said that G-State loved Curry, but it doesn't make a great deal of sense to me. Still, rumors are swirling that Curry could be part of a package sent to Phoenix for Amare Stoudamire. After all, Curry never worked out for the Warriors and didn't plan on being there.

TYLER HANSBROUGH, PACERS: It was a surprise to many that Indiana took Psycho T. Larry Bird admits that several teams have contacted him about dealing for him. It could make sense since Chicago really likes him and has another Roy Williams guy, Kirk Hinrich, to dangle at them. Still, Bird also said that he plans on keeping Hansbrough.
