EUGENE, Ore. (AP) -- Oregon forwards Malik Hairston and Maarty Leunen were selected in the second round of Thursday's NBA draft.
Phoenix chose the 6-foot-6 Hairston with 48th overall pick, then shipped him to San Antonio for the Spurs' second-round pick, point guard Goran Dragic of Slovenia. The Suns also sent a second-round pick in 2009 and cash to the Spurs.
