Aaron Gray has a workout with 3 other players today for the 76ers.

Yesterday, Gray was in Miami working out for the Heat.

Gray, a 7-0 prospect and third-team All-American, averaged 13.9 points and 10 rebounds his final two seasons with the Panthers.

Boston College forward Jared Dudley (6-7), Villanova forward Curtis Sumter (6-7) and Syracuse center Darryl Watkins (6-11) also participated in the Heat workout.

Gray and Dudley, the ACC player of the year last season, are projected as high as late first-round picks and would likely be available at No. 20. Sumter and Watkins are considered late second-round prospects who might come into play if the Heat were to acquire an additional pick.

Gray, rated third among American-born centers in the draft, said he would welcome the chance to learn behind O’Neal and Mourning.

”It would be a great opportunity,” Gray said. “To learn from two of the best centers in my time of watching basketball — it would definitely help me going against them every day.”

Miami has the 20th pick, which might be too high to grab Gray. The Heat, though, lacking a 2nd round pick might try to get one from Orlando as compensation if the Magic want to hire Stan Van Gundy.

The Rockets have the 26th pick and might be looking for a big man. This writer is not wild about that idea.

Finally Aaron Gray is also being talked about in terms of potentially ending up in Houston. Gray is a project, for certain. Think Dave Feitl. He has soft hands and can catch in the post, but he gets pushed around and isn’t quick enough to be an impact rebounder or shot blocker.

But apparently Gray did a good job in that semi-private workout after the Orlando camp, earlier in the week.

“Aaron Gray was really good. He ran well, his body looked great, he’s smart and understands the game. He shot the ball really well. He definitely solidified himself here. He could play for you right now.”

Other thing worth noting is that Dominic James was horrible in the same workout — reportedly he couldn’t finish. All signs point to his return to Marquette despite a Krauser-esque desire to remain in the draft even if he was a second round pick.
