NEW YORK -- Darrell Arthur is the last one in the "green room" to go here at Madison Square Garden. He dropped to No. 27 because of health issues, and remember, this is a player the Sixers had thought about taking.

Other notable players who are in danger of slipping out of the first round:

-- Syracuse's Donte Greene, who left after his freshman year. 

-- Texas A&M freshman DeAndre Jordan, who worked out for the 76ers

-- Kansas guard Mario Chalmers

-- Memphis guard Chris Douglas-Roberts
