Kansas star freshman Xavier Henry is expected to declare himself eligible for the NBA Draft at a 3 p.m. press conference today at Allen Field House.
Henry averaged 13.4 and 4.4 rebounds and started every game for Kansas, which was knocked out of the NCAA Tournament in the second round by Northern Iowa. Many expected Henry to make the jump to the NBA after one season with the Jayhawks.
Kansas coach Bill Self recently said Henry was ready "to impact the NBA game."
Some draft projections have Henry going in the middle of the first round.

He's entering the NBA draft.
Henry announced the move at a press conference this afternoon flanked by his coach, Bill Self, and brother, C.J.
This marks the first one-and-done player for Kansas. Self said he "wouldn't lose any sleep" over Henry's declaration instead saying he was happy for him.
Where Henry will go in the draft is debatable, he says.
