CHICAGO ? Illinois guard Dee Brown broke his right foot during a game at the NBA pre-draft camp at the Moody Bible Institute on Wednesday, likely forcing the junior to withdraw from the NBA draft, Brown told ESPN.com. The Big Ten player of the year and the Sporting News' national player of the year will have surgery later this week in Chicago and be out for at least two months. Brown said he had a meeting set up with the Los Angeles Clippers and would like to fulfill a few other commitments this week, but was realistic that his NBA dream for this draft had abruptly ended. "If they tell me to go back to school then that's what I'll do,'' Brown said. "That's OK. I'm OK with that.'' I just heard on ESPN that he made the decision to go back to school official.

Well, his year's draft isn't very deep in point guards besides the big 3 so he would've gone in the second round anyways. So why not stay another year so he can show that he can be a lottery pick.
