As first reported by ESPN, we have confirmed that Siena point guard Jalen Pickett will test the NBA waters. Saints Head Coach Carmen Maciariello confirmed to Spectrum News that Pickett will enter the NBA draft.

The early entry deadline is Sunday night. This gives the MAAC Rookie of the Year the chance to showcase himself in front of NBA scouts and see what sort of interest he draws up from teams, while still having the chance to still play for Siena next season.

The NBA Draft is less than 2 months away on June 20.
