According to Soren Petro, Kansas big man Udoka Azubuike will withdraw his name from the NBA Draft and return for his junior season. Although he will be a junior, he will be just 19 during next year’s NBA Draft, so the extra year in college likely won’t hurt him.
Azubuike played in 36 games for the Jayhawks and led the country in 2-point shooting, making 78.7 percent of his attempts. He impressed at the combine, with the 2nd longest wingspan, and played well in 5 on 5 action as well.
Although he improved in both areas towards the end of the year, Azubuike could stand to work on his rim protection and rebounding.
