Immanuel Quickley declares for the NBA Draft, will forego eligibility

Immanuel Quickley’s career as a Kentucky Wildcat is over. This morning, Quickley told ESPN that he is entering the 2020 NBA Draft and will forego his remaining eligibility.

“I’ve decided to forgo my remaining eligibility by declaring for the 2020 NBA Draft and signing with an agent,” Quickley wrote ESPN. “I want to thank Coach Cal, the entire UK coaching staff and administration, my brothers/teammates, and Big Blue Nation for all your love and support the past two years. I’m grateful for everyone that helped me along my journey.”

Quickley won SEC Player of the Year honors after an incredible sophomore season.
