The 2022 men’s NCAA tournament has concluded, which means many of the top college basketball players are beginning to announce their intentions to turn pro.
Players have until April 24 to decide if they will declare early entry for the NBA draft, and many have already made announcements. Last year, more than 300 players declared early entry for the draft because NCAA players were allowed an extra year of eligibility due to COVID-19.
That means seniors and underclassmen alike must declare for the draft early entry unless they have used their extra year of eligibility in 2021-22, or if they have already declared and then withdrawn from the draft twice before.
