As expected, there was more moment amongst the Razorback basketball roster on Monday and Tuesday.
Arkansas stats Jaylin Williams and Au’Diese Toney have both announced their plans to enter this year’s NBA Draft. However, Williams will not sign with an agent to maintain his eligibility and return to school if he decides to do so. Williams nearly averaged a double-double this season going for 10.9 points and 9.8 rebounds per game in 2022.
Toney was arguably Arkansas’ best defender this season often guarding the best player on the opposing team. The Pittsburg transfer averaged 10.5 points and 5.3 rebounds per game but the most notable improvement was his free throw shooting. He was a career mid-60’s average shooter from the line but finished at 79-percent this season.
