How a possible Marek Dolezaj departure could affect Syracuse basketball next year

We’re a long way away from figuring out what next season’s Syracuse Orange men’s basketball lineup looks like. Yet, it’s always fun to take some guesses based on what we know.

On Thursday, a story from Syracuse.com’s Donna Ditota indicates that senior forward Marek Dolezaj has yet to make a decision about whether he’ll utilize a fifth year of eligibility next year and return to the Orange. That’s not necessarily a surprise at this juncture, but it would make sense to see the pizza fanatic from Slovakia opt to go pro in Europe, where he stands to make six figures per year with ease.
