Florida starting center Rueben Chinyelu withdrew from the NBA draft and will return to the defending champion Gators for the 2025-26 season, CBS Sports reported Monday.
The 6-foot-10 Chinyelu participated in the NBA G League Elite Camp last week.
Chinyelu averaged 6.0 points and 6.6 rebounds in 40 starts for the Gators last season, his first in Gainesville. He played at Washington State as a 2023-24 freshman.
So far, Chinyelu is the only starter returning from last year’s championship team. Alex Condon also declared for the June 25-26 draft and has until May 28 to decide to stay in or return to Florida.
Starting guards Walter Clayton Jr., Alijah Martin and Will Richard are all out of eligibility.
