Robbie Hummel gets picked 2 spots before the draft ends by the Minnesota Timberwolves as the 58th pick in the NBA draft. Congrats to the Valpo High and Purdue grad.
Couldn't have happened to a nicer kid. After everything he's been through in his career, he deserves it. He's what's right about college basketball and what a true student athlete is.

Congrats to Robbie. I'm sure the NBA will find a spot for a 6'8" left handed shooting, hard working, rebouding young man. With his work ethic, and a little luck with no more injuries, he could make it in the NBA. Good luck to him.

Scott Martin is left handed, Robbie Hummel is right handed.

For some reason I thought they were both left handed. Thanks.
