Donnie Tillman to return to Utah after testing NBA waters

One of the central pieces of the Utah basketball team will be back for this upcoming season, as Donnie Tillman pulled his name out of the NBA Draft pool. Similar to Sedrick Barefield last season, Tillman tested the NBA waters to see what NBA teams would tell him about his draft potential, and what he needs to work on going forward. For any player that has a dream of moving on to the next level it’s a smart move. Not surprisingly, Tillman is returning to school and will be a junior for this upcoming season. He, along with Timmy Allen, Both Gach, and some youngsters will be the anchors of the Utah program.
