Duke junior forward Mason Plumlee is returning to school. The 6-foot-10 Plumlee averaged 11.1 points and 9.2 rebounds per game this past season and has been contemplating whether to leave Durham early or return for his senior campaign for the past couple weeks. NBA executives told CBSSports.com that Plumlee is projected as a late first-round pick, but could have slipped into the second round. CBSSports.com

Tomorrow’s NCAA-mandated date to decide whether or not to enter the NBA early will be just another Tuesday for Duke’s Mason Plumlee. The junior center, who has been told he projects as a mid-to-late first-round draft pick, could take up until April 29, the NBA’s deadline for players to enter the draft. Perky Plumlee, Mason’s father, said Monday morning that his son is “agonizing” over whether or not to leave Duke with one season of eligibility remaining. “Maybe for some kids it’s so clear cut it’s easy,” Perky Plumlee said. “But it’s not an easy decision for Mason. For some kids who don’t want to go to school or don’t do well in school or don’t like school, they would think about it for about two seconds. He’s getting favorable input. He’s well regarded by NBA scouts. He actually is at a point where he would have a bright future either direction.” The Herald Sun

A few other players to keep an eye on include Duke's Kyrie Irving and Mason Plumlee. Sources say that both players are seriously considering making a leap for the NBA. Two sources said that Irving was "gone," and those same sources said Plumlee is leaning toward declaring -- in part so that his two brothers, Miles and incoming freshman Marshall, can have a chance to play.
