Larry Brown claims that the Bobcats could still draft players who have refused to work out for the team this month, according to The Associated Press.

Brown admitted that several players who are candidates for the Bobcats with the No. 9 pick in the draft have refused to work out.

"It's agents trying to control the draft, saying they don't want a kid at a certain spot," Brown said. "I don't worry about that. If we think a kid can play, I don't care what the agent thinks. I know they're looking out for him, but, hopefully, we've seen them enough. If they don't come here and they're available and we think they can help our club, I'm sure Michael will pull the trigger."

"Probably three or four guys have declined to come in because they think they're a little ahead of where we're going to draft at nine," said General Manager Rod Higgins added.
