Marshall freshman Hassan Whiteside will declare for the NBA Draft,
according to multiple sources.
The long and talented 6-foot-11 Whiteside, who averaged 13.1
points, 8.9 rebounds and 5.4 blocks per game this past season for
the Thundering Herd, is expected to sign with an agent.
Whiteside, according to sources, made the decision prior to
learning that Marshall coach Donnie Jones was leaving to take the
job at Central Florida.
FOXSports.com has spoken to several NBA executives, and most
have said that Whiteside will likely be taken somewhere in the NBA
lottery due to his potential.
Whiteside is a big-time shot-blocker who is a cross between
Marcus Camby and Andray Blatche.
