''i * The Michigan Daily-Tuesday, June 10, 1980-Page 15 meanSportsme Golden St. likely to tab Carroll 1st in NBA draft NEW YORK (AP) - The Golden State Warriors, who finished last in the Pacifik Divison the past three seasons, hope to take a major step toward rever- sing their fortunes today when they open the National Basketball Association's college draft. The Warriors obtained the No. 1 pick from the Boston Celtics yesterday in exchange for seven-foot center Robert Parish, a four-year veteran who averaged 17.0 points and 10.9 rebounds per game last season. The teams also swapped their other first-round picks, giving Boston the third choice overall and Golden State the 13th pick. "THIS IS THE first step in the major restructuring of our club," said Scotty Stirling, assistant to the president of the Warriors. Golden State is expected to open the draft by taking Joe Barry Carroll, the 7- foot-1 center who led Purdue to the NCAA semifinals and would inherit Parish's pivot post. Carroll, Darrell Griffith and Kevin McHale still figure to be the first three players chosen after the draft begins at noon. But the trade apparently changes the destination for Carroll and McHale. THE CELTICS, who had'obtained the first pick in the draft in an earlier deal with Detroit, had sought a center to break in behind Dave Cowens, who will be 32 in October. After failing to per- suade Ralph Sampson, Virginia's 7-4 freshman, to turn pro, they had been expected to take Carroll, the 7-1 center who led Purdue to the NCAA semi- finals. Instead, on the eve of the draft, they decided to deal. "There are three great players in this year's draft: Carroll, McHale and Grif- fith. We are still guaranteed to get one of them," said Celtics General Manager Red Auerbach. THEY ARE now expected to get McHale, a 6-11 center from Minnesota who is regarded as better suited to the power forward position by most pro scouts and was the most valuable player of the post-season Aloha Classic. He is similar, in physique and playing style to Cowens and Rick Robey, another Celtic. Utah holds the second pick in the draft and is expected to choose Griffith, the 6-foot-4 guard who led Louisville to the NCAA championship and is regar- ded by most scouts as the only "can't miss" prospect in a draft that is full of uncertainties. "You can't go wrong picking Darrell Griffith," says Marty Blake, the former general manager who runs a scouting service for the NBA that is utilized by all the league's teams. "HE'S GOING to be a superstar for the nex$ 10 years." But Blake is less enthusiastic about the other players available. "There are questions on all these guys," said Blake, "There is con- siderable depth in this draft, but not as many sure things as there were a year ago. GRIFFITH HEADS a good group of guards that includes Ronnie Lester of Iowa despite his knee problems, Kelvin Ransey of Ohio State, Andrew Toney of Southwestern Louisiana, Larry Drew of Missouri, John Duren of Georgetown, Carl Nicks of Indiana State and Sam Worthen of Marquette. McHale and three other college cen- ters who are projected as cornermen in the pros, 6-9 James Ray of Jackson- ville, 6-10 Ricky Brown of Mississippe State and 6-8 Reggie Johnson of Ten- nessee, bolster a group of forward can- didates that includes Mike OKoren, 6-6, North Carolina; Michael Brooks, 6-7, LaSalle, and Kiki Vandeweghe, 6-8, UCLA. Several swingmen - college forwar- ds who could play either forward or guard in the NBA - should go high. Carroll These include Hawkeye Whitney of North Carolina State, Mike Woodson of Indiana and Don Collins of Washington State. SEVEN UNDERGRADUATES ap- plied for the draft, the best being guard Wes Matthews of Wisconsin, forward DeWayne Scales of Louisiana State and center Jeff Ruland of Iona. After Golden State, Utah and Boston, the order of selection in the first round will be Chicago, Denver, New Jersey, New Jersey again, Philadelphia, San Diego, Portland, Dallas, New York, Boston, Washington, San Antonio, Kan- sas City, Detroit, Atlanta, Utah, Seat- tle, Philadelphia, Cleveland and Den- ver. Blake calls the Bulls' pick "the key to the rest of the draft. Chicago could go any of a half-dozen ways." Chicago's .Griffith two prime areas of interest are small forward or playmaking guard. DENVER IS most likely to go for a big forward, with speculation centering on Ray, but might switch signals and take a playmaker. New Jersey will probably use one pick on Mike Gminski, 6-11, from Duke, and the other on either O Koren or a guard, possibly Toney, who is the player Philadelphia would like to get with the eighth pick. Because of trades, Golden State, Denver, New Jersey, Philadelphia and Utah have two picks apiece on the first round while Houston, Indiana, Los Angeles, Milwaukee and Phoenix have none. The draft, which lasts 10 rounds, will be held at the Sheraton Centre hotel and will be televised live by the USA cable network. SPORTS OF THE DAILY: Ex49er Hoskins dead REDWOOD CITY (AP)-Former San Francisco 49er tackle Bob Hoskins, who scored an inspirational victory overHodgkins disease during his pro football career, died Sunday night of an apparent heart attack at the age of 34. Hoskins, who played for the 49ers from 1969 to 1975, was considered one of the team's premier defensive players. The highlight of his career came in 1971 when he recovered a fumble in the end zone for the touchdown that gave the 49ers a 24-20 playoff victory over the Washington Redskins. Hoskins played just one year on the varsity at Wichita State University. In 1968, he played for Seattle of the semi- pro Continental Football League. The 49ers drafted him in 1969, and the following year he became a regular. Prior to the 1974 season Hoskins con- tracted Hodgkins disease, but despite major surgery and treatments, he returned to start every game at right defensive tackle in the 1974 and 1975 seasons. He is survived by his wife, Carolyn, and their four children. BILLBOARD Interested in learning how to swim? Or could you use some brushing up on some of those strokes?
