Of the nearly 90 players who declared as early-entry candidates for the NBA draft, 34 players withdrew their names, the NBA said Tuesday.
Two of those players are Jerome Hill of Gardner-Webb and Walter Pitchford of Nebraska. Pitchford plans to play overseas while Hill’s plans were unclear.
The other 32 players are international prospects.
There are 47 collegiate and 11 international prospects who remain early-entry candidates.
Among those players are a bevy of Kentucky Wildcats. Some believe Karl-Anthony Towns will be the first overall pick with Wildcats teammate Willie-Cauley Stein and Andrew and Aaron Harrison not far behind.
The draft will be held on June 25 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
