Maryland basketball's Diamond Stone signs with agency, officially leaves Terps for NBA Draft

Diamond Stone's Maryland basketball career is officially over after one season. The five-star freshman center has signed with an agency, rendering him ineligible for NCAA play as he formally declares for the NBA Draft.

Maryland guard Melo Trimble, a sophomore, also declared for the draft but declined to hire an agent. So he could be back, but at least 80 percent of Maryland's starting lineup – Stone, Robert Carter Jr., Jake Layman and Rasheed Sulaimon – will not be. The 2016-17 Terps will look drastically different, and time will tell if it's a rebuilding or a reloading.
