Harlem Globetrotters interested in Suns draft pick

PHOENIX - The Phoenix Suns second round pick Taylor Griffin also has drawn interest from the Harlem Globetrotters.

The former Oklahoma Sooner was made the top 'draft pick' by the world-famous team early this week.

The Globetrotters are inviting Griffin to their training camp in Sayville, N.Y.

Griffin could not be reached for comment as he was waiting for Thursday's NBA draft.

Since being drafted by the Suns in the second round Griffin has not commented.

As a senior, Taylor Griffin was the Sooners' third-leading scorer and second-leading rebounder, helping propel Oklahoma to the Elite Eight of the NCAA tournament.

The Globetrotters often field two teams with one traveling the U.S. and the other traveling internationally.

The Globetrotters will be touring the world for their 84th consecutive season.
