Former Charlotte Hornets player and UCLA standout Amari Bailey is making plans to return to college, he tells ESPN’s Dan Murphy.
He is the first player who has played in regular season NBA games to push for college eligibility. He’s hired a lawyer and is looking to return next year.
“It's not a stunt, Bailey told Murphy. “I’m really serious about going back. I just want to improve my game, change the perception of me and just show that I can win."
