Brandon Knight will remain in the NBA draft, he announced Friday morning, becoming the fifth one-and-done player in John Calipari’s two seasons as the Wildcats’ coach.

Knight said he “strongly considered” returning to Kentucky for his sophomore season but ultimately couldn’t pass on the opportunity to be a top-10 pick in the June draft.

Knight said that he “definitely” will finish his degree and will try to get credit hours during the NBA lockout.
