Georgia Tech guard staying in NBA draft

ATLANTA, June 21 (UPI) -- Georgia Tech junior point guard Jarrett Jack said Tuesday he has decided to stay in the NBA draft and not remain in school for his senior year.

Jack declared himself eligible for the draft on May 5, but did not sign with an agent in order to remain eligible to return to school and play his senior season.

He worked out with several NBA teams and attended the league's pre-draft camp in Chicago before making his decision late Tuesday afternoon.

A native of Fort Washington, Md., Jack has played three seasons at Georgia Tech, playing in 101 games and starting all but one. He helped guide the Yellow Jackets to three post-season appearances, including the NCAA Tournament each of the last two years and a trip to the Final Four in 2004.
