2024 NBA Draft: Players Who Should Withdraw and Return to College
The 2024 NBA Draft Combine has come and gone, and now it’s time to assess the performances of the top prospects. While some players have certainly helped their stock, others may want to consider withdrawing from the draft and returning to college for another season. Here are a few players who might want to think twice about their decision.
Hunter Sallis
Hunter Sallis, a shooting guard from Wake Forest, had a mixed week at the combine. While he showed flashes of brilliance, he struggled in the scrimmages and may not be ready for the NBA just yet. Returning to school could help him develop his game and boost his stock for the 2025 draft.
