Alabama guard Kira Lewis said Tuesday he will remain in the 2020 NBA Draft and hire an agent.
“For as long as I can remember, playing in the NBA has always been a dream of mine,” he said in a video posted to Twitter. “… After numerous discussions with my family, I have decided to forego my remaining college eligibility and remain in the draft by hiring an agent. Roll Tide and God bless you all.”
