UNLV is losing players left and right to transfer and the NBA Draft and the fourth Rebel to declare for the draft to do so is forward Chris Obekpa, according to ESPN's Jeff Goodman. Obekpa did not hire an agent so he has until May 25 to return to UNLV.

He also has not played a single minute for the UNLV basketball team as he transferred from St. John's last summer and he had to sit out due to NCAA transfer rules. If he decides to come back to college he will still have one year of eligibility left.
