Auburn guard Wendell Green Jr. is declaring for the NBA Draft, he announced Sunday.
"It has been a great honor to play for Auburn University for the past few seasons," Green said in a statement he released on his personal social media accounts."Thank you to the coaching and training staff for your guidance, advice and leadership. Would also like to thank my teammates and everyone who has played a role in helping me get to where I am today.
Green did not disclose whether or not he would be retaining an agent, leaving the status of his remaining college eligibility in question. Should Green decide to not hire an agent, he'd be able to withdraw from the draft by May 31 and retain as many as two remaining seasons of eligibility. Green's sophomore season saw him carve out productive minutes off the bench, averaging 26.5 minutes despite making only four starts. He averaged 11.9 points per contest, and had two 20-point contests, including a then-career-best 23 points against Alabama.
