Texas F Jericho Sims among early-entry candidates for the 2021 NBA Draft

The news that Texas Longhorns senior forward Jericho Sims entered his name into the 2021 NBA Draft came in typical Sims fashion — without a press release and without a tweet, just his inclusion among the 104 college seniors who filed as early-entry candidates for the draft.

Assuming that Sims has not hired an agent — and there’s no reason at this point to believe that he has — the 6’10, 245-pounder will now have a chance to communicate with and work out for NBA organizations. The deadline to withdraw from the draft is July 19.
