He took almost the entire allotted time, but Andrew White has finally announced he's withdrawing from the 2016 NBA Draft and return to Nebraska.
The 6-foot-7, 220-pounder made his decision just four hours before the midnight deadline for underclassmen to make their final choice. The former Kansas transfer was a major piece of the Cornhuskers' offense in 2015-16, scoring 16.6 points and adding 5.9 rebounds per contest.
White's return is huge for Tim Miles' program, as Nebraska already lost leading scorer Shavon Shields to graduation following the season.
