DraftExpress, Hoopshype and some other sporting news outlets are reporting that the Thunder are leaning towards James Harden with the third pick in the upcoming 2009 NBA draft. Consequently, I’ve updated my mock to take this into account. Also, notice that the Thunder’s indifference toward Ricky Rubio drops the young Spaniard to Sacramento at #4, which negates the need for the Kings to move up to #2 and restores the original draft order.
