Jalen Lecque to Forgo Playing at NC State, Enter 2019 NBA Draft

Highly touted combo guard Jalen Lecque announced in a Twitter video Saturday he will forgo a college basketball career and instead enter the 2019 NBA draft pool:

Lecque is the No. 6 combo guard and No. 33 player overall in the 2019 recruiting class, per 247Sports' composite rankings. He had committed to the North Carolina State Wolfpack and officially signed his letter of intent last November.

Before Lecque formally pledged to NC State, ESPN.com's Jonathan Givony noted he was eligible for the 2019 draft.

He attended Brewster Academy in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, for what was a fifth year of high school.
