Declaring for NBA Draft no longer guarantees college basketball players leave

The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team got some sort of surprising news on Thursday when it was reported that sophomore forward Oshae Brissett would test the NBA Draft waters. Since he hasn’t yet signed with an agent, he can do so and still come back to Syracuse should scouts not project him to get selected this June.

As discussed before, this is a no-brainer for college basketball players looking to get an honest assessment of their chances to make it in the pros and get tips to improve their game. Tyus Battle did it last year, and still returned to Syracuse.
