What the New NCAA College Basketball Rules Mean for Wake Forest

Last week the NCAA announced new rules for college basketball regarding eligibility for the NBA Draft, and rules for after players are drafted.

The New Rules:

  • Undrafted players can now return to school

As a part of the new rules, the NCAA will now allow players who remain in the NBA draft but don’t hear their names called on draft night to come back to school for another season, pending approval from the NBA and NBA Players Association. Players have until the Monday after the draft to decide whether or not they want to return.
