TCU Basketball guard RJ Nembhard declares for the NBA Draft

In a move that some may see as a bit surprising, TCU Basketball redshirt junior guard has elected to forgo his final season of eligibility and declare for the 2021 NBA Draft.

Nembhard started the 2020-2021 season strong, scoring 20 points or more four times across a seven game stretch from December 3rd to January 2nd. He hit a game winner at Oklahoma State as part of a late comeback against Cade Cunningham and the Cowboys, the third game-winning or tying shot of his TCU career.

Nembhard carried the scoring load for a young, offensively-challenged TCU team in his third season on the floor, and was relied on to be a primary ball handler the last two years.
