CBS Sportsline - After being declared ineligible to play his senior year of high school basketball, Bill Walker, best known as O.J. Mayo's teammate at North College Hill (Ohio) High may be able to enter this coming year's NBA Draft.

Walker met the first half of the NBA's draft-eligibility requirements for high school seniors -- which says that a high school senior can enter the draft if it has been a year since his original high school class graduated.

The Ohio governing body is essentially stating that Walker's original high school class is the one that graduated in June 2006.

Despite often being overshadowed by teammate Mayo, Walker is a 6'6" small forward with athleticism that parallels Vince Carter.

If Walker decides to enter the 2007 draft, he would become the first high school senior to be picked since the NBA changed its draft rules during the last collective bargaining session
 
It'd be stupid for him to come out with the likes of Oden Noah Durant and etc..but hey whatever floats your boat.
 
Eh, either way he isnt playing next year. Might as well just goto Oak Hill.
 
ha, he can go there for academics, but i dont doubt even the great steve smith will be able to get him to be elligable to play.

and durant got kicked out of oak hill.
 
Durant is going to be good IMO, if he ever puts on weight he will I should say..6'10" 190 isn't gonna cut it.

Its Ohio rules that wont allow him to play, he would be eligiable in about 40 of the 50 states. The rules arent the same for every state.
