Trey Burke Inquiring About Draft Stock

Mar 21, 2012 5:33 PM

Trey Burke is considering leaving Michigan for the NBA draft.

“I think that, for the most part, when you have a season as a freshman like he did, the NBA, they like them young. They think their ceiling is higher when they’re young,” Trey’s father, Benji, said Tuesday. “Trey had some good games and a solid season for a freshman. It’s going to be one of the weaker point guard drafts in years.

"The second thing is he was considered high. He does have some juice right now. It didn’t end well, but he ended up having some great games. He’s got to be one of the top five freshman guards in the country. He got a hold of some information, and you at least need to inquire.

“I can’t say he’s coming back, can’t saying he’s leaving. If it had my way, he’d be coming back.”

April 29 is the deadline to declare for the draft.
