NBA draft outlook for Dijon Thompson
As the NBA draft nears, I thought it would be a good idea to take a look at some of the analyses on Dijon Thompson's draft prospects. I previously posted some final comments about his performance at the Chicago Pre-Draft camp, and here are a few more profiles on him from around the web:

DraftCity
NBAdraft.net
Espn

As far as rankings go, NBAdraft.net has him ranked as a top 10 shooting guard. Unfortunately, not a lot of mock drafts I've seen list out the second round (where Thompson is likely to be picked), but here are a few mocks with him as a selection:

NBAdraft.net: 45th, to the Philadelphia 76ers
CollegeHoopsNet.com: 59th, to the Atlanta Hawks
InsideHoops.com: in a group of players likely to go mid-second round (or possibly early second round)

Also, Thompson has worked out for the Utah Jazz twice, and they have two second round picks, so he might end up there.

Some of this might change, as we should find out by tomorrow's deadline if any more college players are pulling their names out of the draft.
