In a list which features 18 year-old Ricky Rubio as the number 1 PG prospect for this year's NBA Draft, PAO's Nick Calathes finds his way into 7th place.
The report distinguishes Calathes as the 'best passer in the draft'.
This is the word on Calathes:
'7. Nick Calathes - 6′5 185 CG - Florida: Size to play either guard spot but best passer in the draft. Great vision and utilizes R or L extremely well. Shoots it with confidence but stroke could use some work. Dual passport, signed with Panathinaikos in Greece, the Triple Crown winners of the Greek League, Cup, & EuroLeague Championship.'
DraftExpress has Calathes ranked no.10 among PGs.

The 2009 Draft, although not renounced for its depth or quality of its players is loaded with talented PGs.
Finally NBA.com also remarks Calathes as the 'Best Pick and Roll Passer ' of the Draft.
'At 6-5 Calathes broke every assist record at the University of Florida as a freshman and sophomore, but will be playing next season in Greece.'

Calathes is expected to land around the end of the first round although it might be that he gets picked a bit earlier around the early 20s.
