8 Players Drafted: Texas (Kevin Durant), UCLA (Kevin Love)

7 Players Drafted: Ohio State (Mike Conley Jr.), USC (DeMar DeRozan)

6 Players Drafted: UNC (Ty Lawson), Memphis (Derrick Rose)

5 Players Drafted: Syracuse (Wesley Johnson), Georgetown (Roy Hibbert), Nevada (Ramon Sessions), Duke (Kyrie Irving), Arizona (Derrick Williams), Georgia Tech (Thaddeus Young), Florida State (Al Thornton)

4 Players Drafted: Maryland (Greivis Vasquez), Washington (Spencer Hawes), Oklahoma (Blake Griffin), LSU (Marcus Thornton), UConn (Kemba Walker)

3 Players Drafted: Boston College (Jared Dudley), Purdue (Carl Landry), Wake Forest (Jeff Teague), Stanford (Brook Lopez), West Virginia (Devin Ebanks), Pittsburgh (DeJaun Blair), Texas A&M (DeAndre Jordan), Oregon (Aaron Brooks)
