Gradey Dick will leave Kansas after his freshman season and enter the 2023 NBA draft.

"None of this would be possible without God and my family," Dick told ESPN. "They've been with me every step of the way. I also want to thank my coaches, teachers, and friends along the way."

Dick is the No. 11 prospect in ESPN's draft projections.

Dick averaged 14.1 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game this season, shooting 40% for 3.

The NBA and NBPA have tabled the possibility of lowering the minimum age to enter the draft as part of its next collective bargaining agreement, which will mean the "one-and-done" rule will continue.

The league wanted to eliminate the rule, but the players wanted to ensure veteran players would be taken care of as part of the change.

NBA owners and executives were largely indifferent or fully against returning to high school gymnasiums to evaluate players, and even less enthusiastic about that idea without concessions from the NBPA on providing increased access to pre-draft player medical information and increased participation in several elements of the draft combine.

The rise of financial opportunities for non-NBA players has softened the NBPA's belief there needed to be an aggressive push for lowering the draft limi

Jalen Hood-Schifino will leave Indiana after his freshman decision to enter the 2023 NBA draft.

Hood-Schifino is a projected lottery pick.

"For me, the time is now," Hood-Schifino told ESPN. "This has been a dream of mine since I was a little boy."

Hood was voted the Big Ten Conference Freshman of Year and second-team All-Big Ten after averaging 13.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 3.7 assists.

"My freshman season was nothing short of amazing," said Hood-Schifino, who is 6-foot-5 with a 6-foot-10 wingspan. "My coaches kept their word by having the ultimate trust in me as a freshman. We didn't win a national championship, but overall the season was successful and experiencing March Madness was a surreal moment."

Brandon Miller has declared for the 2023 NBA draft after his freshman season at Alabama.

Miller is expected to be a top-3 pick with a chance of going No. 2.

Miller told ESPN that that he thanked "God, my family, my fans and all the coaches at the University of Alabama," and now planned to forgo his college eligibility.

Miller was the nation's leading freshman scorer at 18.8 points a game.

Terquavion Smith is leaving NC State for the 2023 NBA draft after his sophomore season.

"I'm forgoing my college eligibility and going all the way in," Smith said. "I'm thankful for everything the NC State coaching staff and fans have done for me. This is the right decision for me to take care of my family."

Smith is the No. 30 prospect in the draft by ESPN.

Smith finished as the second-leading scorer in the ACC as well as the second most prolific 3-point shooter with 91 makes on the season.

"I showed a lot of different things this year," Smith said. "Teams wanted to see me be more of a point guard, making the right play, making the right decisions. They wanted to see me improve my finishing, and I increased that. I showed I can be a leader."

Smith surprisingly withdrew from the 2022 NBA draft after an impressive showing at the pre-draft camp in Chicago.

Tyrese Proctor will return to Duke for his sophomore season. Proctor is a potential lottery pick in 2024.

"This is the best decision for my career, both present and future," Proctor told ESPN. "Coach [Jon] Scheyer and I share the same vision; we have unfinished business. We have the best staff in the country, and they will push me each and every day."

Proctor was the No. 30 prospect in ESPN's 2023 draft projections. 

At 6-foot-5, Proctor has dynamic shot-making ability, creativity as a playmaker and strong competitiveness defensively.

Jett Howard will declare for the 2023 NBA draft, leaving Michigan after his freshman season.

Howard is the No. 16 prospect in ESPN's draft rankings.

"This was a great learning year for me," Howard told ESPN. "It's what I needed. It taught me how to play within a pro-style offense and be effective, to get out of my comfort zone, and play with other good players."

Howard says he relished playing for his father, Juwan Howard, a former NBA All-Star and two-time NBA champion who won Big Ten Coach of the Year in 2021 after taking Michigan to the Elite Eight.

"Playing for my dad was a beautiful experience," Howard said. "It was a little rough at first, as he wants things done a certain way, but overall it was easy playing in his offense. He's a fun person to be around on a day-to-day basis."

Taylor Hendricks will forgo his remaining college eligibility at UCF and enter the 2023 NBA draft.

Hendricks says he has signed with attorney Raymond Brothers, president of Roc Nation basketball.

Hendricks is the No. 12 prospect in ESPN's NBA draft projections.

"I want to thank my mom and brothers Tyler and Jamal," Hendricks said. "Also, UCF and Coach Johnny Dawkins for pushing me to develop my game and help get me where I am now. Also, I want to thank the Lord for ordering my steps through this whole journey."

Brandon Miller has emerged with the potential to go No. 2 in the 2023 NBA draft ahead of Scoot Henderson. Miller is a 6'9 multi-dimensional wing while Henderson is a 6'2 super athletic combo guard. 

"NBA teams are telling me he is firmly in the mix at No. 2," said ESPN's Jonathan Givony on NBA Today.

"I talked to a veteran executive just in the last week and he told me he currently has Brandon Miller No. 2 on his board," said Brian Windhorst on his podcast on Wednesday. "So it is a thing."

Sam Veccine of The Athletic shared a similar sentiment this week as well.

"It is not a foregone conclusion that Henderson will be picked at No. 2. I’ve talked with a number of lead front-office executives as well as high-level scouts who either think the margin between Miller and Henderson is razor thin or just have Miller ahead at this point," wrote Veccine.

While the No. 2 pick is a subject of debate, Victor Wembanyama remains the consensus option at No. 1.
