Udoka Azubuike Rumors
Kansas men’s basketball center Udoka Azubuike will return to KU for his senior season, KU head coach Bill Self announced Monday. “We’re all very excited about Udoka making the decision not to enter the (NBA) draft,” Self said.
Jeff Goodman: Kansas big man Udoka Azubuike will withdraw from the draft and return to school, source told ESPN.
After two seasons and 47 games as a Kansas Jayhawk, sophomore center Udoka Azubuike is at least curious to hear what NBA evaluators have to say about his game. Azubuike, who started 34 of KU’s 39 games this season and improved his numbers across the board from his 11-game injury-shortened freshman season, has decided to test the NBA waters by entering the draft process. Azubuike will not hire an agent, leaving open the possibility that he could still return to Kansas for his junior season the way Svi Mykhailiuk did one year ago.
