	28. Seattle Sonics
		Drafting so late in the first round, with the 28th overall pick, and with so few apparent needs, the Sonics will probably go the "best available" player route, and may draft a foreign player as a long-term investment.

		Draft rights traded with a 1989 first-round draft choice by the Clippers to the Philadelphia 76ers for the draft rights to Charles Smith on 6/28/88.
