ISU’s Brackins to turn pro
AMES, Iowa — Iowa State coach Greg McDermott says junior forward Craig Brackins will skip his final year of eligibility and enter the NBA draft.
Brackins, a 6-foot-10 forward from Palmdale, Calif., averaged 16.5 points and 8.5 rebounds per game this season as the Cyclones finished 15-17.
Brackins nearly left for the NBA last spring before deciding to return to school.
In Friday’s announcement, Iowa State also says center Justin Hamilton and guard Dominique Buckley will transfer.
