Several Big Ten players opted to pull out of the NBA Draft and return to school in recent days, including Iowa’s Luka Garza and Illinois’ Kofi Cockburn and Ayo Dosunmu.
Michigan State’s Aaron Henry joined that group, but Xavier Tillman took a different path.
After months and months of speculation, Henry announced on Sunday he’s returning to East Lansing for his junior season while Tillman elected to forgo his final year of eligibility and stay in the draft.
Henry, a 6-foot-6 wing, and Tillman, a 6-foot-8 center, both entered their names into the draft in the spring but left their options open to return to Michigan State.
