Yoeli Childs will be a Cougar next season.
The BYU forward announced via Twitter Tuesday night that he is withdrawing from the NBA draft and will return to Provo after previously declaring for the draft without hiring an agent.
“These last two years I’ve spent at BYU have been incredible. The culture here is special and BYU has the best fans in the country. From teammates to coaches to fans it really feels like a big family,” Childs said in a statement on Twitter.
“After several weeks of prayer, talking with my family, those close to me, and NBA teams I feel the best decision for my future and my family is to return to BYU for my junior year!
