Oklahoma junior guard Buddy Hield will return for this senior season in Norman, opting not to declare for the 2015 NBA Draft. Hield, the Big 12 Player of the Year this past season, announced his decision at a 10:30 PM CT press conference Friday morning. He mentioned that he had “intentions” of going pro, but that talking to his teammates helped to dissuade him.
