This time last year, PJ Washington declared for the 2018 NBA Draft but after evaluating his options further, decided to return to Kentucky for his sophomore season. The outstanding Wildcat forward has once again declared for the draft but this time will be the last for Washington.
The projected lottery pick in the upcoming draft made a wise decision to return and improve his stock and he’s done just that on the court, emerging as Kentucky’s best player last season.
The Third-Team All-American announced his decision to jump to the NBA on Tuesday by releasing the following video:
I will be entering my name into the 2019 NBA Draft and signing with an agent. Thank you BBN for all your love and support over the past two years. Once a wildcat, Always a wildcat ?✍?? pic.twitter.com/3x6n5RcHqZ
