Terrence Jones announced Saturday that he will withdraw his name from the NBA Draft and return to the University of Kentucky for his sophomore season of basketball
Calipari had this to say through twitter - “I’m very happy for Terrence and his family because he did the right thing for his future but he had to come to that conclusion. He told me he wanted to continue enjoying the college experience, and I told him that was fine by me.”
Terrence will be playing college basketball at UK next year and Brandon Knight will be playing in the Developmental League of NBA. The money would have still been there for Brandon if he had waited. Good decision Terrence! Have fun and enjoy yourself.
"Brandon Knight will be playing in the Developmental League of NBA"
. . . only if the looming NBA Lockout is resolved within an unexpectedly short time. Look for Brandon to be a UK student next season, working out at the Craft Center to stay in shape per Coach Cal's invite.
Worst decision ever for TJ. BK would be lottery either way but TJ's stock will drop tremendously if he doesn't improve. The draft will be stacked next year. I feel sad for the kid. The used car salesman strikes again.
According to DraftExpress: A projected #9 pick this year is now projected #13 next year.
So I guess I'm not the only one who doesn't think this kid made a poor decision. Of course you can't see it with your blue glasses on. What the hell, it's not your money or future. So long as it benefits the Cats you probably could care less.
