Arizona guard KJ Lewis, a projected top-20 pick in the 2025 NBA draft, announced Friday he is returning to the Wildcats for his sophomore season.

Lewis entered the NBA draft after the season but turned down an invite to this month's G League Elite Camp, an early sign he planned to come back to college.

A 6-foot-4 guard, Lewis is ranked No. 19 in ESPN's 2025 NBA draft rankings. He came off the bench last season for Arizona but showed flashes of the talent that has NBA evaluators so intrigued.
