AJ Lawson has a little bit more time to decide whether he’s returning to the South Carolina basketball team or declaring for the NBA draft.

The NBA postponed the deadline for NCAA underclassmen to remove their names from the draft pool, meaning sophomore guard AJ Lawson has a little more time to think his decision over. The original date of June 3rd has been pushed back to an unknown time later in the summer as the NBA pre-draft process has been interrupted by Coronavirus.
