STATESBORO – Georgia Southern guard Tookie Brown declared for the 2018 NBA draft today but will maintain his college eligibility by not hiring an agent, giving him the option to return to school for his senior season.
Brown can begin working out with NBA teams as early as April 24, and is also eligible to be invited to the NBA Draft combine in Chicago May 16-20. The deadline to withdraw from the NBA Draft while maintaining NCAA eligibility is May 30.
"Without Coach Byington and my teammates, none of this would be possible so I want to thank them and the coaching staff for helping me get here," said Brown.
