Pittsburgh Panthers DeJuan Blair to Declare for NBA Draft, No Decision on Agent

Pittsburgh Panthers All-America center DeJuan Blair will reportedly declare for the NBA Draft but he has avoided hiring an agent which leaves him with the opportunity to return to school for his junior year if he is not happy with where he is projected to go in the draft.

 

Blair was a major component of the Panthers run in 2008-09 as he averaged 15.7 points and 12.3 rebounds a game to earn co-player of the year honors in the Big East, an award he shared with UConn’s Hasheem Thabeet. Blair’s play helped Pittsburgh earn its first ever number one ranking as well as its first ever number one-seed in the NCAA tournament.

 

At 6-foot-7, 260 pounds, Blair would be a mid-sized inside player in the NBA. He is currently projected to be a mid to late first round selection. Without an agent Blair would have until June 15 to withdraw his name from the June 25 NBA Draft.
