Dylan Cardwell becomes latest Tiger to enter name into NBA draft consideration
As the 2023-24 Auburn basketball roster continues to take shape, another Tiger has made a decision regarding his future with the program.
Dylan Cardwell, a rising senior for the Auburn Tigers basketball team, has made the decision to enter his name into NBA draft consideration while maintaining his college eligibility. Adam Cole of The Opelika-Auburn News reported the news Tuesday night.
Cardwell becomes the fourth player from last season’s roster to make such a decision, joining guard Wendell Green Jr., forward Jaylin Williams, and center Johni Broome. Unlike the previous three names mentioned, Cardwell made the decision quietly, as Cole discovered Cardwell’s among the NBA-released list that includes 242 entries.
In three seasons, Cardwell has participated in 93 games and has averaged 3.5 points and rebounds per game. Last season, he averaged a career-high 15.2 minutes per game and scored a season-high nine points in Auburn’s 93-66 win over Colgate on Dec. 2.
He, along with Auburn’s other NBA draft contenders, have until May 31 at 11:59 ET to withdraw their name from draft consideration.
