Texas' Hamilton, Thompson, Joseph Entering Draft
Apr 22, 2011 8:16 PM EDT
Tristan Thompson, Jordan Hamilton and Cory Joseph have all declared for the 2011 NBA draft.
Hamilton plans to hire an agent and forego his final two seasons of collegiate eligibility, but Thompson and Joseph will not, which means they may retain their eligibility if they withdraw their names by May 8.
With this departure (and if Thompson and Joseph do indeed leave), Rick Barnes loses his entire starting lineup, which consisted of Hamilton, Thompson, Joseph and graduating seniors Dogus Balbay and Gary Johnson.
