Drew Timme announced that will enter his name in the 2022 NBA draft after becoming the West Coast Conference Player of the Year as a junior with the Gonzaga Bulldogs.
Timme, who was also a consensus All-American, averaged 18.4 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.8 assists on 58.6% shooting from the field in 32 games. He led the WCC in scoring and ranked 20th in the country in shooting among all Division I players.
The 6-foot-10 forward is projected to be a mid-to-late second-round pick by most mock drafts. He did not state in his announcement if he would hire an agent but could still elect to return to college for one more season.

Timme will have the opportunity to participate in private workouts with teams to improve his draft stock over the next two months. He also figures to be a strong candidate to earn an invitation to take part in the draft combine or NBA G League Elite Camp next month.
The NBA draft will take place on June 23.
