MSU's Arnett Moultrie Drafted by Heat and then Traded to 76ers

The Miami Heat stopped celebrating their NBA Championship to join the rest of the league in New Jersey for the NBA Draft. Miami used their 27th pick to draft Mississippi State forward Arnett Moultrie.

Before the night was done, the Heat trade Moultrie to the Philadelphia 76ers for a second round pick (45th) this year and a future first round pick. That 45th pick turned out to be center Justin Hamilton out of LSU, the Heat's only selection of the night.

Other MSU players who were were looking to hear their name called were Renardo Sidney and Dee Bost. Neither Sidney nor Bost got drafted and will have to try to make a NBA roster as a free agent.
