With the NBA postponing the NBA Draft Combine and NBA Draft Lottery, we aren’t sure at this point if the NBA Draft will proceed at the same time as scheduled. However, Michigan State fans will be watching any draft-related news like a hawk, because there could potentially be anywhere from one to three Spartans in the Draft this year. Two of those players, Xavier Tillman and Aaron Henry, are being categorized by NCAA.com Men’s Basketball analyst Andy Katz as being ‘on the fence’ to either stay in the Draft or head back to MSU for another season.
Here is the video from Katz:

In Katz’s opinion, the decision for Tillman is a toss-up, while he considers Henry to be “strongly” on the fence. This isn’t a major surprise. Tillman has been projected as a second-round pick in multiple NBA Mock Drafts while Henry wasn’t selected in the latest mock from The Athletic.
