Orem, Utah, Nov. 1, 2010 - Forward Brandon Costner was selected by the Utah Flash in the first round of the 2010 NBA D-League Draft.

He spent his college career at North Carolina State where he averaged 12.6 points and 5.9 rebounds over the span of this college career.
"The draft went exactly the way we were hoping to," said head coach Kevin Young. "I'm excited to see all of our 17 players come to training camp and compete for a roster spot."
Along with the addition of Costner, the Flash had many great additions to their roster. From the second to the eighth round, the Flash selected Nkem Ojougboh from Northeastern University, D'Andre Bell from Georgia Tech, Darren Kent from Kansas State, Richard Shields from Rutgers University and Carlos Medlock from Eastern Michigan, Amadou Mbodji from Jacksonville State, and Kent Tuttle from Brigham Young University.
