    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">In a surprise move, Toronto's Olu Famutimi has elected to keep his name in the NBA draft.

    The 6-foot-6 wing player, who's a sophomore with the Arkansas Razorbacks, made his name eligible on May 14 but hasn't been on the radar of most mock draft websites and was expected to return for another NCAA season.

    Early declarees had to withdraw their names by yesterday, a week before next Tuesday's draft, to retain their NCAA eligibility.

    "He's taking a chance, but we'll see what happens," Arkansas coach Stan Heath said. "We expected him back next year." </div>
