In what can only be described as a "very surprising" change of heart, it appears that Kansas sophomore forward Julian Wright will be entering the NBA draft and hiring an agent. This is certainly a change in tune from the eccentric Wright, who is on pace to graduate from Kansas in only three years and who has long maintained he had no interest in the NBA until that point.
It seems that many close to Wright have seen him projected as high as a top 5 pick in this upcoming draft and have convinced him that he has nothing to gain and everything to lose by sticking around in Lawrence for another season. This will certainly have an effect on the status of other forwards who are weighing their options such as Wright's teammate Brandon Rush and Georgia Tech's Thaddeus Young, as Wright will certainly be drafted ahead of either of them.
