[Go Canes!!]

I can give you 800,000 reasons why this happened today.

And how many reasons for why it happened last year?

Wong declared for the draft last year and L talked about him before the year started as a guy who probably wouldn't come back. Him declaring isn't a surprise to me. Pack or not Pack.

 

[IncaneInTheBrain]

He's gonna get exactly the same feedback as last year; until you fix your jumpshot, you aren't getting drafted.

So does this basically mean there’s still a possibility he returns? I don’t think he gets drafted imo

Yes, he maintained his college eligibility by not hiring an agent. We're in exactly the same spot as last year with him.

 

[CanesHoopsman]

Is the charlotte asst coach and Jahmir Young an insurance policy here? Hoping if Wong does indeed leave, we have a plan… Would of course prefer Wong back

Nothing wrong with testing the waters

He's done this before. If he doesn't get the grade he thinks he should get, he will return, with a nice NIL deal.

 

[nycane]

he should go through process and come back. he is not an NBA player at this point, he is not a consistent shooter and doesnt understand that yet.
he, miller, and the k-state kid can do damage together. That k-state kid is the 3pt threat the canes been missing.

Nothing *Wong with testing the waters fify lol

 

[JustAFanHTX]

He’ll be back lol my jumper is better than wongs

 

[WeBallinBoyz]

Yeah he’s maintaining eligibility, he’ll be back imo. He’s a second rounder at best given his current jumper.

Tbh, idk if he’s even a draft pick (at this point) if he leaves. NBA ain’t got but 2 rounds, and that jumpshot does not scream NBA.

 

[FromDeeeeep]

Could also be trying renegotiate his LifeWallet NIL deal lol

 

[TheOriginalCane]

I mean, I love Zay, but I'm not certain that the second half of this season improved his draft stock.

So I expect him back.

Only issue that I have is that this delays the "use" of the last scholarship for a while.

 

[hotshot]

Omier is waiting for a draft grade too, no?

 

[JgDaCane]

Get your NIL money kid. Don’t blame you for the bluff.

 

[smack99]

Kids not getting drafted so unless he plans to play oversees, doesn’t make sense but good luck to him.

 

[Da_Lucky_One]

He will be back.
