Kentucky freshman forward Jarred Vanderbilt will not participate in this weeks NBA Draft combine in Chicago. However, he is still weighing his options about staying in the draft. He announced his decision in a post to his Twitter account.
Vanderbilt, who played in just 14 games for the Wildcats last season, declared for the NBA Draft in April without hiring an agent. Doing so left the door open for a return to Kentucky. Fellow Wildcats PJ Washington and Wenyen Gabriel did the same.
