Houston guard Milos Uzan has withdrawn from the 2025 NBA Draft and will return to the Cougars.
His representation, PNW Sports Group, confirmed his decision with ESPN on Tuesday.
The deadline for players to withdraw from the draft and maintain college eligibility is Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. ET.
Uzan, who has one season of eligibility remaining, averaged 11.4 points, 4.3 assists and 3.1 rebounds and shot 42.8 percent from 3-point range while starting all 40 games in his first campaign with the Cougars (35-5) in 2024-25.
He made the All-Big 12 second team for Houston, which fell to Florida in the final of the NCAA Tournament.
He scored 22 points in top-seeded Houston’s 62-60 win against fourth-seeded Purdue in the Sweet 16, including the game-winning layup with 0.9 seconds left. Uzan also scored a career-high 25 points in the Cougars’ 72-64 win against Arizona in the Big 12 tournament title game.
Uzan, 22, transferred to Houston after two seasons at Oklahoma, where he averaged 8.3 points, 3.7 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 64 games (56 starts) from 2022-24.
