Great Buckeye. Thanks for bringing the program back to relevancy and giving us a Big Ten POY. Good luck in the NBA

News we were all expecting but I was still not ready to accept. Declared for NBA.



Good luck, KBD.

And he said he plans to hire an agent, too, so it is perfectly clear he is leaving.

 

[NFBuck]

Made one of the great one year leaps I've seen from a Buckeye hoops player. Thanks for a memorable season, KBD.

It's refreshing someone is actually leaving early for the NBA as opposed to Europe or the G League like some of our past friends

Well just because we think he will be drafted doesn't necessarily mean he will be, but yes it seems to make perfect sense for him to be leaving, and he seems to have better odds of making the NBA than the likes of Ross and TT.

Was hoping against hope he would stay 1 more year.
