It's too early for Alabama point guard Collin Sexton to be making any decisions about his professional future.

Fresh off being eliminated in the Round of 32, Sexton was asked about making the leap to the NBA given he would likely be a lottery pick in the 2018 draft.

Sexton, however, isn't finished with the collegiate experience just yet. His immediate focus is on his academics.

"Right now, I'm worry about my team and celebrating with my team," Sexton told Adam Zagoria of NYT Sports. "We had a great season and I'm trying to finish with a 4.0."

Sexton was phenomenal in his freshman campaign. He averaged 19.2 points on 44.6 percent shooting from the field, along with 3.8 rebounds and 3.6 assists while leading Alabama to their first NCAA tournament since 2012.
