to give the knee more time to heal. The two-time overall champion

The NBA Draft is just days away and while the first pick is set in stone, the rest of the draft is anyones guess. Frank Rijkaard Netherland Jersey . 1. New Orleans - PF Anthony Davis Why? Because Davis is easily the top prospect in the draft. Hes long, athletic, tough and always plays hard. He is an elite rebounder and shot-blocker. He can defend. He shoots a terrific percentage from the floor and has surprising ball-handling skills. Winning the lottery means the Hornets rebuild is now in the express lane. 2. Charlotte - PF Thomas Robinson The Charlotte Bobcats are actively exploring ways to turn this pick into multiple young assets. And lets face it they need help everywhere. If they do keep the pick Robinson is a solid option and the team liked him in workouts. At 21-years-old his body has developed to the point where it is NBA ready. 3. Washington - SG Bradley Beal The Wizards swung a big move to add Emeka Okafor and Trevor Ariza from the Hornets. That gives them a starting lineup that incldues John Wall at point, Ariza at the three, Nene at four and Okafor at centre. What they need is a two which makes Beal the obvious choice if he slips past Charlotte. He can shoot from anywhere which would be perfect fit alongside Wall. Beal is also a good athlete, good ball-hanlder and a terrific rebounder for a guard. 4. Cleveland - SF Michael Kidd-Gilchrist A power forward might be a better fit for Cleveland but Kidd-Gilchrist is just too good to let slip. He may not have the biggest offensive repertoire but he is a high character guy who plays hard all the time. Oh and he is an athletic specimen. 5. Scaramento - C Andre Drummond Sacramento is another of several teams in this draft looking at moving their pick. If you keep the pick why not swing for the fences and go with Drummond. Drummond is a much bigger risk than say, Harrison Barnes who is far more mature, but he also has a bigger upside. He just looks like an NBA centre - long, athletic and a great leaper. He can intimidate defensively, rebounds the ball and blocks shots at a high level. Put him beside DeMarcus Cousins and thats an intimidating front court. This could also blow up in their faces. For the full mock draft log on to TSN.ca Johannes Hendrikus Cruijff Jersey . -- Russ Smith had a game-high 23 points and Wayne Blackshear added 14 points and six rebounds and No. Joel Veltman World Cup Jersey .500. And the Nationals say they have a lot more to accomplish. Edwin Jackson pitched seven scoreless innings and Steve Lombardozzi hit a three-run triple in the Nationals 8-2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday night. Bode Miller is known for his aggressive nature on the slopes, a hold-nothing-back approach thats led to plenty of success and spills. When it comes to his surgically repaired left knee, Miller will hold back and take a much more cautious route, especially with the 2014 Sochi Olympics just around the corner. Miller has elected to skip the remaining portion of the World Cup season, along with world championships, to give the knee more time to heal. The two-time overall champion had microfracture surgery nearly a year ago and doesnt want any sort of setback with the Olympics -- his last one, he said -- so close. Because another injury would probably end his career. Still, its a little strange without Miller heading to the starting gate. Hes missed a few races in his career, but he hasnt sat out a full season since his debut in 1997. "It was tough for me to miss a season of ski racing, but this decision was easy for me when I look at my opportunity next year," the 35-year-old Miller said in a press release Wednesday. "I have said many times that motivation is a key trait for me when it comes to my racing -- I am super motivated to do great things next year." Miller has been so successful by doing things his way, on his terms. That gamblers mentality has served him well in his career, leading to five Olympic medals -- including that elusive gold at the 2010 Vancouver Games -- four world championships and 33 World Cup wins, which is an American mens record. U.S. coach Sassha Rearick applauded Millers decision to slow down and not rush back into action. Arjen Robben World Cup Jersey. He wants Miller healthy in a year, not skiing on the circuit just for the sake of skiing on the circuit. "It is an incredibly smart and strategic decision by Bode," Rearick said. "Hes become legendary for pushing the limits of what is possible on skis, but knows an additional injury to his knee could put the 2014 Olympics in jeopardy. "At this point, he is not fully recovered to race and has turned his focus to being 100 per cent fit for Sochi." By shutting things down early, Miller wont lose his starting position at World Cup races next season. He will still begin with the top skiers in the world, not near the bottom when the snow has been trampled and filled with ruts. Off the slopes, this has been a big year for Miller. He married pro volleyball player Morgan Miller on Oct. 7, and the couple is expecting their first child. Miller has a daughter from a previous relationship. Miller has had his share of drama away from skiing. In December, Miller accidentally hit his wife in the eye with a golf ball. Later, on Twitter, he posted, "Hit wife w golfball. (hash)worstfeelingever." Photos of his wife last month showed her left eye completely closed and badly bloodied. She ended up getting more than 50 stitches. She later posted: "Im not feeling so hot. Line drive to the face today with a golf ball from my darling husband. I still love." ' ' '
