Colorado's leading rebounder is apparently coming back to school for one more run, as a source told Jon Rothstein of Fan Rag Sports that George King has withdrawn from the NBA draft and will play his senior season with the Buffaloes.

King led the team with 6.8 rebounds per contest while also chipping in with 11.1 points in 27.7 minutes of action during his junior campaign.

With leading scorer Derrick White gone to the NBA, King should become a focal point of the Buffaloes' offense next season, helping to boost his draft stock for 2018.
