The deadline to declare for the NBA Draft was Sunday night and Scout is reporting that North Carolina's Tony Bradley just beat the deadline to get his name in the pool.

The kid with the 7'4" wingspan has not signed with an agent yet though and could return to UNC so long as he withdraws his name from the NBA Draft by May 24. Bradley was a five-star recruit coming out of high school and was the No. 17 overall player in the 2016 class according to ESPN. He's projected as a low end first round pick because of his limited time behind Kennedy Meeks and Isaiah Hicks in UNC's rotation.
