Wednesday was the deadline for underclassmen to withdraw their name from the 2016 NBA Draft.
Entering the final day, Iowa's Peter Jok (staying), Maryland's Robert Carter Jr. (going), Michigan State's Deyonta Davis (going), Ohio State's Trevor Thompson (staying), Purdue's Vincent Edwards (staying) and Rutgers' Corey Sanders (staying) had already announced their future plans.
Indiana's James Blackmon Jr. and Troy Williams, Maryland's Melo Trimble, Nebraska's Andrew White III, Purdue's Caleb Swanigan and Wisconsin's Nigel Hayes, however, waited until the final hours to make their decisions.
Here's a look at who's returning, and who's headed to the pros.

Very good performances and experiences through pre-draft but I will be doing one more year of College Basketball.
