I've obviously made some assumptions here about who's back and who isn't. I've tried to note that when relevant. I don't believe these kids will return as their draft position is just too high right now: Mike Conley Jr. of Ohio State, Jeff Green & Roy Hibbert of Georgetown, Julian Wright of Kansas, Brandan Wright of UNC, Spencer Hawes of Washington, and Wilson Chandler of DePaul. A good list of who's signed an agent (& therefore not coming back) is here.
The only reason I think Brandon Rush may be coming back is that Corey Brewer, Aaron Afflalo, Marcus Williams, and Nick Young are all ahead of him, and seniors Morris Almond & Alando Tucker are at least even with him, as are foreigners Rudy Fernandez (Spain) and Marco Bellini (Italy). That makes him a late first-rounder or even a mid-second rounder, and he's got some family who should be whispering in his ear that a chance at a Final Four is much more fun than a year in the NBDL. Georgia Tech looks the most vulnerable of these 50 to the NBA Draft as both Crittendon and Young could be first-rounders. It really just depends on their workouts.
