Augsburg's Devean George and Lebanon Valley's Andy Panko will each attend the Portsmouth Invitational, a camp for the 64 top collegiate players in the nation to show their skills to be potentially drafted or signed by NBA teams. The camp will be held in Portsmouth, Va., March 31-April 3.

The Portsmouth camp is the first of three development camps for NBA prospects, leading up to the NBA Draft on June 30 in Washington, D.C. The other camps will be held in Phoenix, Ariz., and Chicago.

George and Panko are trying to become the first Division III player drafted by an NBA team since 1991, when Lamont Strothers of Christopher Newport was drafted by Golden State.
