Al Willman of The Detroit News announced Tuesday night that two more MAC players have declared for the NBA Draft in June.
First up is James Thompson IV from Eastern Michigan. The 6’11” center averaged 14.6 points per game and 11.2 rebounds during the 2016-2017 campaign. He was selected to the second All-MAC team and his 4.8 offensive rebounds per game was the best in the MAC. He was also second in Division I basketball. He was also pretty exciting to watch. In the 2015-2016 season, he was selected as the MAC Freshman of the Year.
