As first reported by Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports, Miami men’s basketball guard Nijel Pack will withdraw his name from the 2022 NBA Draft and return to college next season.
The Kansas State transfer committed to UM on April 23 after an illustrious two seasons with the Wildcats. Pack averaged 17.4 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.2 assists per game last year, landing on the All-Big 12 First Team.
“Nijel is a tremendous addition to our team. He is truly one of the finest players in the country, as well as an excellent young man with an elite work ethic who loves basketball,” Miami head coach Jim Larrañaga said in a Miami Athletics release after Pack’s commitment.
