Wichita State junior combo-guard Dexter Dennis announced on Tuesday that he will opt out of the NBA Draft and return to WSU for his junior season. This comes after Dennis entered the NBA Draft earlier this offseason in hopes of gaining some feedback on where he stands for a potential professional career.
Both Dennis and the coaching staff said this was the right decision for the talented guard. Dennis kept his collegiate eligibility throughout the process by not hiring an agent.
“Dexter’s ultimate goal is to become an NBA player, and this is the first step,” Head coach Gregg Marshall said after Dennis declared earlier this offseason.
