Last month, Gary Parrish of CBS Sports reported that Indiana sophomore forward OG Anunoby was leaning towards entering the 2017 NBA draft.

According to multiple reports published on Monday morning, Anunoby has decided to enter the draft and hire an agent.

Both Jeff Goodman of ESPN.com and Jon Rothstein of Fan Rag Sports reported the news early Monday.

Anunoby was injured in Indiana’s 75-72 win at Penn State on Jan. 18, but details of his injuries were never made public. He underwent season-ending knee surgery on Jan. 31.

The Jefferson City (Mo.) product averaged 11.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.3 blocks in 25.1 minutes per game last season.

Anunoby is still widely considered a first round pick, despite the injury. Chad Ford of ESPN.com ranks him as the 15th best prospect for June’s draft while DraftExpress.com has him No. 14.
