Oregon Ducks sophomore forward Dillon Brooks and Senior center Chris Boucher have reportedly declared for the NBA draft. Brooks started all 38 games for the Ducks in 2015/16 season and averaged 16.7 points per game, and many thought that his growth over his sophomore season and performance in the NCAA Tournament showed that he was NBA ready, especially in his 22 point, 6 assist performance against Duke.
Chris Boucher was just awarded an extra year of eligibility by the NCAA after transferring from Northwest College in Wyoming, where he was the JUCO player of the year in 2014/15. Boucher was a major force down low setting the Oregon record for blocks in a season with 110, and lead the team with total rebounds with 280 in 38 games played.
Neither Brooks or Boucher have decided to hire agents, keeping their amateur status and ability to come back to Oregon for next year.
