Carl English doesn't mind people spreading rumors about him.

Especially when those rumors are about English possibly moving into the first round of next week's NBA Draft.

"If people want to talk about me being a first-round pick, keep talking," said English, a former University of Hawai'i standout. "Stuff like that can only help."

Media outlets in Toronto were reporting yesterday that the Toronto Raptors may be trying to trade their first-round pick (No. 4 overall) and forward Antonio Davis to the Dallas Mavericks for forward Raef LaFrentz and Dallas' first-round pick (No. 29 overall).
