Indiana sophomore big man Thomas Bryant will declare for the NBA Draft, but will NOT hire an agent, source told ESPN.

He will be back unless he wants to play in the D league. Same deal for Blackmon.

The scouts will likely tell him the same things we said all season long and he'll withdraw and be back for his junior year. 

To me what will determine his decision is if he can improve his draft stock back to mid 1st round like after his Freshmen year compared to the 2nd round projections currently

I think he can. He had an awful season and looked like a guy without a position for most of it. If he gains 20-25 pounds and commits himself to being a post player I think he can get back into the mid 1st round. Next year's draft is supposed to be weaker too so that would help.

The thing with Bryant is that it only takes one strong workout. If he goes and works out for some team in the late teens or 20's and on that paticular day he just goes off shooting in drills, as a 6'10" guy that can shoot he could secure a 1st round promise. 


You would know better than probably anyone here...are those promises a real thing, and how set in stone are they? That could really screw someone's life up if they make a promise and don't keep it and no one else picks the guy in the 1st round.
