I read that he withdrew after the NCAA date to return to school but before the NBA deadline. perhaps he's planning to play in another country for a year.

Yes, lots of intriguing international guys will have to wait till next year. Badji, Prkacin, Diop, Hukporti, Maker, etc.


Maker's still in

No he's not

yeah not really sure what good it's going to do him at this point. Unless he's trying to make a G-League roster and come up that way. This would have been his best chance as any to get in I think without showing and proving first. But i guess if he was a second rounder anyway he'd be facing some of the same challenges. Wish him the best though. See what happens from here.

Badji, Maker, Prkacin, and Hukport are all out. Badji's fun to watch and I think was worthy of being a first rounder, but he must not have gotten any guarantee.
