While this could be a big blow to the roster for next season, it is important to remember that as long as they don’t hire an agent, they can still return for their final year of eligibility. Plenty of players declare for the draft so that they can go to the combine and get evaluated by the NBA scouts and execs, and then return to school for another year to improve. As the above tweets points out, they have until May 30th to make a decision.
Doral Moore averaged a double double in conference play with 11.7 points and 10.8 rebounds per game. He was also 5th in the nation in field goal percentage at 69%.
Bryant Crawford led the Deacs in scoring this season, averaging 17.7 points in conference play. He added 5 assists and 1.3 assists per game as well.
If Bryant and Doral do decide not to return for their senior seasons, I would like to wish them the best of luck in their professional careers.
