In the immediate aftermath of the Ohio St. Buckeyes' crushing defeat to the Kansas Jayhawks, a game in which OSU star Jared Sullinger shot just 5-19, the question of Sullinger's NBA future was bound to come up. After last year's loss in the tournament, Sullinger emphatically declared that he was returning to school, and stayed true to that decision despite many projections of him as a top-five pick. This year, he wasn't so certain.
"I honestly don't know," Sullinger said after the loss. "That's something I'm going to take up with coach and just talk it over with him and talk it over with my family. I really don't know my decision yet."
Sullinger will likely be a lottery pick if he does declare for the draft. SB Nation's Tom Ziller has him going to the Milwaukee Bucks at 10th overall in his latest mock draft.
