CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati point guard Kenny Satterfield
changed his mind and said Friday he will return for his sophomore
season rather than declare for the NBA draft.
|  | | Kenny Satterfield, right, decided to return to Cincinnati for his sophomore season. |
Satterfield, who led Conference USA with 5.4 assists per game
his freshman season, had been saying he expected to opt for the NBA
draft. But he told Cincinnati coach Bob Huggins he will stay in
school.
"It just felt like the right thing to do, to get another year
of school," Satterfield said Friday.
Asked if he will stay for his junior season. Satterfield said:
"I can't tell."
Satterfield, 19, from New York City, said he realized he will
get more playing time for the Bearcats than he would if he were
drafted and riding the bench for an NBA team.
Last season, he started 14 of 33 games and averaged 9.2 points
per game. | |
