North Carolina's Cole Anthony delaying draft announcement
The five-star recruit averaged 18.5 points and four assists despite missing a significant chunk of the season following knee surgery. But his production couldn't save the Tar Heels from their first losing season under Roy Williams. The team finished 14-19.

Columbia graduate transfer Patrick Tape commits to Duke
Tape, a 6-foot-10 Charlotte native averaged 11.3 points and 5.9 rebounds in the 2018-19 season. He's ranked in the top 10 of ESPN's graduate transfer rankings.

Louisville's Jordan Nwora enters NBA draft after All-America season
He returned to the Cardinals and was named Atlantic Coast Conference preseason player of the year before going on to average 18 points and 7.7 rebounds per game while shooting 44% from the field. The 6-foot-7 Nwora was named to the AP's All-ACC first team.

NC State signee Josh Hall will test NBA draft process but maintain college eligibility
Hall, a 6-foot-9 forward, is ranked 36th nationally by 247sports and 22nd by Rivals. If Hall opted to stay in the draft, it would mark the second straight year a key recruit opted to bypass playing for the Wolfpack in favor of staying in the draft.
