Tulane junior Melvin Frazier is declaring for the 2018 NBA draft.
"I've grown and matured so much in the last three years both on and off the court," Frazier told ESPN." I feel like now is a great time for me to test the waters."
Frazier will not hire an agent at this time, preserving the option to return to school for his senior year pending the feedback he receives from NBA teams.
"Not at this time," Frazier said. "I'm only one year from getting my college degree and that means a lot to me."
He plans to attend the NBA scouting combine in Chicago in May if invited.
