The latest in the long line of players to put their names into the NBA draft field is Juwan Morgan.

The 6-foot-8 forward from Indiana had something of a breakout season in 2017-18, averaging 16.5 points and 7.4 boards in Archie Miller’s system in which combo-forwards like Morgan thrive.

He is not signing with an agent, which means he’ll have until May 30th to pull his name from consideration and return to school.

Morgan is not considered a likely draft pick at this point, but it is always helpful for players with aspirations of getting to the NBA to hear directly from NBA teams about what they need to do to get to that level.
