UAB Men’s Basketball junior forward William Lee announced April 17 that he will enter the 2017 NBA Draft, although he said he will not hire an agent.

Lee will need to decide by May 24 whether to remain in the draft or to return to UAB for his senior season. The NBA Draft Combine will take place from May 9 to May 14, and players who have not hired an agent are given up to ten days to make their final decision.

“UAB has provided me with an unbelievable opportunity to play college basketball against some of the best players and teams in the nation,” Lee said in a press conference.
