Georgetown's Thompson declares for NBA Draft

Hollis Thompson entered Georgetown early, and he’s leaving early, too. After three years with the Hoyas, the 6-foot-8 junior sharpshooter plans to sign with an agent and head to the NBA Draft, the school announced Tuesday.

The Hoyas don’t have any returning seniors next season and could’ve used his experience. But after entering Georgetown in the spring of 2009, Thompson was on pace to graduate early. More importantly, he’d already tested the draft waters last year. He averaged 12.8 points and 5.5 rebounds this season and is projected as a potential second-round pick.
