ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - The NBA draft isn't until Thursday, but one Lobo star has already been selected.

The Harlem Globetrotters drafted former Lobo Tony Dandridge with their second pick.

The former Lobo standout was taken behind Oklahoma's Taylor Griffin.

If Dandridge decides not to play professionally in Europe or elsewhere, he will have a shot at being a Globetrotter.

Dandridge gained some serious national attention after he was crowned the college slam dunk champion earlier this year.
