Derrick Williams will finish out his classes this spring - instead of taking off in midsemester like some NBA draft prospects do - and he will keep working out with the Wildcats for at least the near future.
"We couldn't be prouder of him," UA assistant coach James Whitford said, "with what he's done here, the way he handled the situation, and the fact that he's still going to school now and he intends to complete his degree.
"He's in there working out with the guys because he's worried about getting better and being ready when the time is right. In college basketball, you don't oftentimes come around a player like him and a person like him. He's a great reflection of the people who have raised him."
