Miami guard Isaiah Wong on Monday announced that he will forgo his last year of eligibility and enter the 2023 NBA draft, capping off a decorated four-year career with the Hurricanes.
Wong was named the ACC Player of the Year after averaging 16.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.4 steals on 38.4% shooting from the field. He ranked 13th in the country in minutes (1,237) and third in the conference in points (598).
The 6-foot-4 guard leaves the program fourth on the all-time career scoring list (1,866) and just the third player to be recognized as a conference player of the year. His 598 total points ranked ninth-most in a season by a Hurricane.
Isaiah Wong. Forever a Hurricane.

Wong previously tested the pre-draft process last year before ultimately deciding to return to school. He is currently not projected to be drafted this year, but will likely have the opportunity to showcase himself in the draft combine next month in Chicago, Illinois.
The early entry deadline for the draft is April 23.
