Patrick McCaw heading to NBA draft

Just one week after freshman Stephen Zimmerman Jr. announced his departure from the Runnin’ Rebels, sophomore Patrick McCaw posted a tweet about his own departure.

These two Rebels declared early for the 2016 NBA Draft.

McCaw leaving the Runnin’ Rebels puts UNLV down another star athlete.

“As a current sophomore of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, I feel that I have accomplished what I wanted in collegiate athletics and it is time to take the next step in my basketball career,” McCaw tweeted the morning of April 4.

The sophomore guard continued to thank his coaches.
