Yoeli Childs had a clear answer Thursday to explain why he decided to return for his senior season to play for BYU basketball.
“I want to make a big run for these guys, I want to come back and get my degree. Those things together were huge for me in just wanting to come back and give it one last swing.”
Childs spoke Thursday morning in front of media members and school staff to discuss the return he announced about 15 hours prior on Twitter, just meeting the deadline to withdraw from the NBA Draft and retain his eligibility to finish his college career.
