Today is the day for the 2008 NBA Draft and Terp alum James Gist is the only Maryland player expected to potentially get drafted this evening.
Here are a few articles on the local product talking about his preperation for the draft.
University of Maryland student paper The Diamondback:

The Washington Times:

Some of Gist's stop and destinations during workouts: Houston; San Antonio; Sacramento, Calif.; Chicago; Portland, Ore.; Cleveland; Toronto; and Milwaukee. Less than a week ago, Boston called to arrange a workout less than 36 hours before the draft.
Gist has been on a world tour and has been predicted to go in the last 5 to 10 picks of the second round to going undrafted and having to work his way into the league.
Steak's prediction: 52. Miami Heat - James Gist SF University of Maryland
Best of luck James!
