Omer Yurtseven or Joshua Smith ... bigger disappointment? The answer is Grady Mateen. The very same Grady Mateen who quit the team the day before the regular season finale versus Syracuse.

I had class with Grady. Smart kid. Transferred to Ohio State for his last two years of college. A finesse player, better suited for today’s game.

I'm disappointed that Omer wasn't able to stay healthy enough to play more. That's about it. Best wishes to the man for whatever is next for him.

Has Omer officially announced he is in the draft? I know he sent out something on social media at the end of the season that certainly sounded like he was gone, but I don't remember ever seeing anything official from him . Maybe I just missed it. Is he officially in the draft? Has he hired an agent?

Is he officially in the draft? Has he hired an agent? I can't find anything public saying that he has officially declared for the draft and/or hired an agent. All I can find is the goodbye and thank you to the staff he posted on Twitter/IG. Anything can happen but I doubt he returns for his last year of eligibility.

Is he officially in the draft? Has he hired an agent? Nothing public on any of those, so theoretically could still return.

I agree with you that I think he is gone, I was just surprised I had not seen it announced anywhere yet. You see announcements everyday lately about players from other schools declaring for the draft and I thought that maybe I missed it when Omer had made his announcement.

Is Omer graduating? Theoretically, he could grad transfer anywhere, right?

I do think the odds of him returning are probably at least slightly higher given that the pandemic may make some of the foreign leagues a less steady option than they would have been in normal conditions.

What a slap in the face that would be. Can you imagine if he goes somewhere like Kentucky, Kansas, Duke, UNC, etc.?

Just two more hours till the deadline to declare passes, and still not a peep out of Omer. It’s starting to feel like he might actually be a candidate to come back next season.

Though, is it possible that he declared and just didn’t make a public announcement? Do NBA teams have an official list internally?
