Draft winners and losers from the NCAA Tournament [ESPN Insider only] (222 clicks)
Arron Afflalo, UCLA -
Afflalo was red-hot against Kansas, pushing UCLA to the Final Four. But his other tourney games were much more spotty. In particular, foul trouble and the long arms of Corey Brewer shut him down in the Florida game.
His lack of size, length and athleticism will be a problem at the next level.
He's tough and an excellent midrange shooter, but his weaknesses will probably keep him from being drafted in the first round.

Example: If Florida's frontcourt of Al Horford, Joakim Noah and Corey Brewer returns to school yet again, the Gators would be No. 1 yet again. But the guess is that all three will leave, which is why Florida doesn't appear on this list.
