GREENVILLE, S.C. -- Jabari Smith could be the first pick in the NBA draft, but after one of the most dismal outings of his career Sunday, he wasn't ready to announce plans to leave Auburn.
Smith said he hadn't yet made up his mind if he'll enter the draft after a freshman season that saw him blossom into one of the country's most ferocious scorers. But his comments in the aftermath of No. 2-seeded Auburn's 79-61 loss to Miami in the second round of the NCAA tournament certainly sounded like an ending.
"I feel like if I had to make a decision a thousand more times, I wouldn't choose nowhere else but Auburn," Smith said.
