After helping UConn secure the program’s fifth national title, Andre Jackson has elected to declare for the NBA Draft, like teammates Jordan Hawkins and Adama Sanogo, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Unlike Hawkins, Jackson has elected to retain collegiate eligibility, meaning he will be able to meet with NBA scouts to get a grasp on his pro prospects, but still has the option to return to UConn.
