INDIANAPOLIS – Jordan Tucker has played his last college basketball game for Butler.
The 6-7 forward made it official Friday by announcing on social media that he is staying in the NBA draft pool and would not return to college. Playing in the NBA “has always been my dream,” he posted.
“This is a difficult decision, but it’s the one I want to make to be completely focused on my professional goals over the next few months,” Tucker’s post said. “My time at Butler has made me a better player and a better person. Thank you to my coaches, my teammates, and everyone at Butler who has invested so much in me.
