Whether or not they ever crack an NBA top 12 roster, I don't know. But I bet all three make it through at least one NBA training camp with a roster spot.

Nevill is the only one of the three that has a legitimate shot at the NBA -- and that's only because of his size. Cummard is too frail and Plaisted, though he is athletic, plays below the rim. People go on and on about Plaisted's athleticism, but when was the last time you saw him use it in a game? Cummard and Plaisted are both great college players, but neither will play significant minutes in the NBA.
