Immanuel Quickley has officially entered his name in the NBA Draft, he announced on Twitter Monday morning.
This has been the growing expectation in recent weeks, despite some early optimism Quickley could return for a junior season. However, he is entering his name in the draft and made it clear that he is not just testing the waters. We have seen Immanuel Quickley in Kentucky blue for the last time.
I have heard for weeks that Quickley had always intended on leaving Kentucky after his second year, and you have to think that his success this season has made this decision a no-brainer for him, especially now that he’s being projected in the early second-round range in several mock drafts.
