Kentucky freshman point guard De’Aaron Fox is heading to the 2017 NBA Draft, according to a report from Jon Rothstein of Fan Rag Sports.

The 6-foot-3 Fox averaged 16.7 points, 4.6 assists and 4.0 rebounds per game as he should be firmly in the discussion as a potential top-5 pick.

Although Rothstein reported that Fox is entering the draft, Fox has yet to officially say that he’s leaving, as he tweeted this message out right after the report.

Fox has yet to officially declare, but it’s practically a formality that he’s going to the NBA Draft.
