Gilder is a key returnee from an Aggies team that made it to the Sweet 16 in 2017-18. As a junior, he averaged 12.3 points and 4.1 rebounds per game. Gilder averaged 32-plus minutes per game in each of the last 2 seasons.
The 6-4 guard will have a chance to end his A&M career with a bang, but he’ll do so without a few key pieces from 2017-18. The Aggies lost Tyler Davis, T.J. Hogg and Robert Williams to the NBA.
Gilder and freshman point guard T.J. Starks will look to provide some stability to a young Aggies squad.
Players have until May 30 to decide if they want to hire an agent and offcially declare or withdraw from the NBA draft.
