#1 is correct.
#2 is pretty darned close. Jarron Collins is at #13 with 8,542 minutes played. The twelfth member is Paul Neumann, graduated 1959, 4th round pick (29th overall) and he had a nice six year career. Played for two years at Syracuse, two years with the 76ers, two years for the Warriors. He was typically the #4 scorer.
The undrafted free agents were Howard Wright, Chasson Randle and Howie Dallmar.
Lowest selection to enter the NBA was Bob Bedell, 10th round, #90 overall in 1968. Played for four years. Mike Bratz, second lowest pick at #66 overall in the third round had a nine year career, playing 10,613 minutes.
