BREAKING NEWS: Armon Bassett Declares for NBA Draft

According to John Groce, Ohio guard Armon Bassett will declare for the NBA draft, but has not hired an agent.  


In his press conference, Groce said that since he did not hire an agent, he is eligible to return to Ohio University and play for the Bobcats next year if he withdraws from the draft by May 8.

What does this mean for Bobcat fans?  It means that it's either the NBA or NCAA for Bassett, who is unlikely to take a gig in Europe, considering he decided not to hire an agent.  That's good news for the Attack U nation.  

This gives Armon time to talk to the NBA draft committee to see what his chances of being drafted are, and apply for Ohio University again in the instance he decides to return for his senior season.  

If he returns for his senior year, Ohio would return its top scorer from the Mid-American Conference and NCAA tournaments.  

If he doesn't return, it opens up a second scholarship for John Groce, as Asown Sayles has decided to graduate and leave the university following spring quarter.
