LSU's Javonte Smart tells me that he will withdraw from the 2020 NBA Draft and return to school next season.

We have some unfinished business in Baton Rouge. Let’s get to work.

Geaux Tigers, Trendon

Gonna be a hell of a season even if watford doesn’t come back.

Great blend of experienced players along with some great young talent coming in.

If Watford returns they will have a chance to compete for the SEC title. If not, they should still be good and possibly a NCAAT team but I see them as a second tier group in that scenario (the SEC should be much improved next season).

Without Watford, they (for the first time in the Wade era) won't have someone who looks like a reliable frontcourt scorer (Leblanc is more of a defensive guy. The transfer from Washington isn't known for his offense and O'Neal is still a bit of an unknown). Wade has had three very efficient offensive teams. And he did so with three teams that weren't very good from beyond the arc.
All three teams though had a guy they could get the ball to inside for buckets (Reath, Reid, Watford). Can they consistently be AS efficient still being a below avg three point shooting team without that inside presence?

Watford returning is very very unlikely. His families wishes are most important thing right now.


Very happy to hear that they made right decision. Great news nice Covid save
