The NCAA tournament has brought an end to the college season for many top prospects, leaving them with decisions about whether to enter the draft or return to college. Players from overseas have also begun to make their intentions known, and as the draft approaches, more names will appear below on the Hoops Rumors list of early entrants for the 2014 draft.
We already passed along the key dates on the calendar for early entrants, with the most important deadlines falling on April 15th, when underclassmen must withdraw from the draft to retain eligibility, April 27th, the final day for all early-entry candidates to declare for the draft, and June 16th, the last day non-college prospects can withdraw.
The NBA’s official list of early entrants doesn’t come out until May 2nd, but until then, we’ll be keeping track of reports on prospects declaring for the draft, and we’ll archive them all in a running list here, which will be accessible anytime under “Featured Posts” on the right sidebar.
The players below are in alphabetical order. For an idea of how they stack up against one another, check out the DraftExpress list of the top 100 prospects. If you have any corrections or omissions, please contact us.
