The 6-foot-8 Mykhailiuk was among the most noteworthy players weighing whether to remain in the draft or return to school. He averaged 9.8 points for the Kansas Jayhawks last season, and his ability to shoot from the perimeter made many NBA scouts believe he would be selected in the draft.
But despite performing well in shooting drills during the scouting combine, Mykhailiuk did not get enough reassurance he would be selected and chose to withdraw his name by the deadline Wednesday.
NC State’s Yurtseven will also withdraw from draft and return to play for Kevin Keatts, according to an ESPN report. Yurtseven was likely a second-rounder or even undrafted and he will have one more shot at the draft next year.
