PULLMAN, Wash. (AP) Washington State forward Robert Franks says he intends to declare for the NBA draft and will hire an agent.
The junior posted his decision on his Twitter account Monday. Franks says his dream is to play at the next level and, ”I’m ready to pursue my dreams.”
Franks was a breakout star in an otherwise down season for the Cougars. He averaged 17.4 points per game, good for seventh in the Pac-12, and was named the most improved player in the conference. Franks averaged just 6.3 points per game as a sophomore.
Where Franks plays in the NBA will be the question. He’s 6-foot-7 with a long wingspan and has improved his outside shooting, making 40.5 percent of his 3-point attempts last season.
