ESPN College Basketball analyst Jeff Goodman is reporting that LSU sophomore Jordan Mickey is leaning towards entering the NBA Draft instead of coming back for his Junior season.

During the 2014-15 season, Mickey averaged 15.4 points per game, 9.9 rebounds a game, and 3.6 blocks a game. He recorded 113 total blocks this season.

At one time, if a potential draftee didn't hire an agent and ultimately didn't get drafted; a player could come back to their team. Even if that's true, there are certainly a whole slew of vultures out there offering this future world traveler the moon. Perhaps he doesn't have the grades to return, so Europe or the Middle East will be a great place to develop his next education. He'll also get paid a hell of a lot better over seas than minimum wage.

Jordan Mickey Leaning Towards NBA Draft. Maybe but there's an good chance that the NBA Draft isn't leaning towards Mickey. I hear that Souvlaki and Moussaka are wonderful dishes to try while plying your trade in Greece.

Enjoy Jordan.

If he wants a career in the NBA he will stay if he wants a paycheck for a year or two he will leave.

Hopefully Johnny Jones can convince him otherwise. He's not ready yet and there's going to be scouts at every single game next year thanks to Simmons and company. Why not stay and improve your draft stock?

Don't worry guys he's only "leaning towards leaning." He still hasn't fully committed towards leaning for the draft.
