Back to Pullman: Cougars trio withdraws from NBA draft

Washington State men’s basketball seniors Conor Clifford, Josh Hawkinson and Ike Iroegbu have withdrawn their names from the NBA draft and will return for their senior seasons, they each announced Tuesday.

The trio declared for the draft in early April, but didn’t hire agents. The NBA draft combine ran May 11-15 and players who did not hire agents had 10 days following the combine’s conclusion to make a final decision to return to school or remain in the draft.

Hawkinson, a 6-foot-10 forward, led the team in scoring and rebounding. Iroegbu has started 61 of WSU’s 62 games over the last two seasons.
