On Friday, Queta announced he would declare for the upcoming NBA Draft, which will be held June 20. He made the announcement on Twitter and included a parting message to Aggies fans.
“After discussing with my family and coaching staff, I have decided to pursue my dream of playing in the NBA and will declare for the 2019 NBA Draft,” Queta wrote. “I plan to hire an agent with the full intent of staying in the draft, while also retaining my eligibility should I choose to return to school.”
Queta, who Utah State recruited from Portugal, was the second-leading scorer for the Aggies, as well as their enforcer in the paint on the defense end.
