Brook and Robin Lopez will both leave Stanford to enter the NBA draft.

Brook was the 7th player selected in RealGM's most recent mock draft and is assured of being a lottery pick.  Robin is projected to be a late first round or second round selection.

"This has been a very difficult decision for me because I really enjoyed my two years at Stanford," Robin Lopez said in a statement released to the AP. "I have always hoped I would have an opportunity to play in the NBA and I feel now is the right time to make that dream a reality."

"After a great deal of thought and discussion with my family, I feel it is the appropriate time to enter the NBA Draft," Brook Lopez said. "It is the dream of every basketball player to play and succeed in the NBA and I feel I am ready to take on this new challenge."

The Miami Heat announced today that they have signed guard Blake Ahearn and forward Stephane Lasme to second 10-day contracts. Per team policy, terms of the deals were not disclosed.

Ahearn, a 6?2?, 190-pound guard, has appeared in six games for the Heat averaging 5.7 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.3 assists in 15.0 minutes of action. He scored a career-high 15 points at Detroit on 3/27, and his 94.7 percent (18-of-19) from the free throw line currently leads the team.

Lasme, a 6?8?, 215-pound forward, has appeared in six games for the Heat averaging 5.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.00 blocks, and 1.00 steals in 21.5 minutes of action. He blocked a career-high three shots on two occasions and has recorded 12 blocks in his six games with the Heat.

Jermaine O'Neal, who will return to the floor for the Pacers on Monday against the Heat after more than two months on the bench, doesn't think he has anything to prove, according to the Indianapolis Star.

"I don't feel I have to prove anything to my doubters. I feel I need to prove it to myself," O'Neal said,"that I can get back and dominate once again. At 29, I'm not ready to give that up."

"I'm going to get some things off my chest (on the court) next season, but it's going to start with me in the summertime," Jermaine added.

Michael Redd thinks that this season has been a failure for the Bucks, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.

"Last year wasn't as bad as this year," Redd said. "Last year we had severe injury problems, and we would have been much better. This year, you can't really put it on injuries."

When asked if he could find anything positive from the season, Redd said, "Nothing, nothing."

"The fact is that one day, when we're winning and contending for a championship, we'll appreciate these days. Other than that, character has been built; perseverance has been built up. I've grown in those areas, having patience with everything," Redd added.

Doc Rivers, the head coach of the Celtics, believes that the future is now for the team, according to the Boston Herald.

"We do have some nice young guys, as well," Rivers said on Sunday. "That?s the trick, and who knows? Do you stay with what you?ve got and keep churning it out, or do you make a move?"

"I don?t know. I mean, you can look at all the sports and teams have done it both ways. The Chicago Bulls, could they have won one more? Probably. So that?s the question. Hopefully, we can answer that question. That would be great," Rivers said.

Magic forward Brian Cook could miss up to two weeks because he broke his right middle finger in practice, according to an Associated Press report.

The Magic said Monday that Cook would rest 10 to 14 days, then be re-evaluated. The Magic?s season ends with three games from April 13-16. They have eight games remaining.

The Toronto Raptors lost to the New Orleans Hornets on Sunday night, further sliding down in the weak Eastern Conference.

Derek Fisher was in the lineup for the 74th time this season on Sunday, but the Lakers don't know what the near future holds for their veteran guard, according to the Los Angeles Daily News.

An MRI revealed a partially torn tendon in his right foot, but Fisher aims to play through the discomfort. The common resting period for an injury of this caliber can range from six to eight weeks.

"We're still in a quandary about Derek, and what exactly is going to happen," Coach Phil Jackson said. "Can he play through this? Is he going to have to take a rest period or what? So, right now we're still in a quandary about how it's going to go."

Ricky Davis wants to re-sign with the Miami Heat despite their horrible season, according to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

He will become an unrestricted free agent this summer.

"They will get the first look," Davis said after a loss to the Celtics Sunday night. "I know it will not be like this next year."

Jermaine O'Neal will return for the Pacers on Monday night versus the Heat after more than two months on the sideline, according to the Indianapolis Star.

He will come off the bench and isn't expected to play more than twenty minutes a game for the time being.

"I haven't lost my defensive rhythm," O'Neal said. "Offensively it's going to take me a couple of games to get myself together, but we don't need me as much offensively now."
