Since announcing that he would be testing the NBA Draft waters for the second straight offseason last March, there has been little in the way of news about the Scarlet Knights 6-2 guard. Privately, Rutgers coaches have expressed optimism that their best player will return for his junior campaign. But the Sacramento Kings this past weekend announced that Sanders was among several players working out of the club Monday.
Sanders has yet to sign with an agent, which keeps alive his collegiate eligibility if he wants to return to Rutgers. But considering he’s working out for a team two days before the deadline for underclassmen to withdraw their names from consideration for the NBA Draft, the odds of him returning to Rutgers seems to be 50-50 at best.
