Missouri's junior point guard Phil Pressey has decided to enter the 2013 NBA Draft and forgo his senior season at the University of Missouri. Pressey has signed with the CAA Sports Agency (Creative Artists Agency). According to ESPN's NBA Insider Chad Ford, Phil Pressey is currently projected as a second round draft pick, or undrafted. Pressey is ranked 81 out of 100 in Chad Ford's draft prospects.
With his time at the University of Missouri, Phil Pressey became Missouri's all time assist and steals leader. Pressey's inconsistency came into play a lot in his last season at Mizzou, as he averaged about 3.5 turnovers a game and failed to contribute in late game situations, most notably UCLA, LSU, Texas A&M and Arkansas.
The outlook on the Missouri Basketball program next year will only have one returning starter next year in sophomore Jabari Brown. Senior guard Earnest Ross will be back and Tulsa transfer Jordan Clarskon is eligible after sitting out this season.
Missouri freshmen Wes Clark is expected to be the Tiger's new point guard to fill in as Phil Pressey declares for the NBA Draft.
Phil Pressey's career at Missouri is now over. How will the future look for Missouri Basketball? We'll wait and see.
