Auburn PG Jared Harper became a star this season, leading the Tigers all the way to the first Final Four in school history before a devastating loss to Virginia on Saturday.
Only a junior, Harper could have returned to Auburn for his senior season next fall, but instead, he’s decided to capitalize on this magical run that saw him make so many clutch plays.
As you can see below, Harper tweeted on Tuesday afternoon that he would forgo his senior season and enter the 2019 NBA Draft:

Harper also said he would sign with an agent. He can do that and still return to school, as long as he ends his relationship with the agent before the deadline to return to school.
Harper averaged 15.3 points and 5.8 assists per game this year for the Tigers, starting all 40 games for Bruce Pearl’s squad.
