Jarron Cumberland withdraws name from NBA Draft, to return to Cincinnati's UC Bearcats

Cincinnati Bearcats standout Jarron Cumberland withdrew his name from NBA Draft consideration and will return to the UC basketball program for his senior season, according to his Twitter.

The former Wilmington High School star averaged 18.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game during his junior year for the Bearcats.

Cumberland was not expected to be a first-round pick, according to the most recent mock draft updates.

The former Wilmington High School star announced last month that he would "test the waters" and see where he stood in the draft process.

Cumberland reportedly was not among 10 players advancing from the NBA G League Elite Camp that concluded Tuesday to the NBA Combine, per a report via Twitter from ESPN's Jonathan Givony.
