Washington basketball: Stewart declares for NBA Draft

Isaiah Stewart had one of the best seasons a freshman has ever had with Washington basketball. During his only year in purple and gold, Stewart led the team in points (17), rebounds (8.8), and blocks (2.1) per game. He was named as a semi-finalist for the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Award, and was honored on the All Pac-12 First Team and All Pac-12 Freshman First Team during his only season. Stewart also held the team’s highest GPA through the fall quarter.

Projecting Stewart at the NBA level has been a tough task for most draft experts, even though Stewart should be considered among the elite prospects in this class, and deserves to be taken with a top 10 pick.
