NC State’s Dorn withdraws from NBA draft

North Carolina State forward Torin Dorn announced Sunday that he is withdrawing from the 2018 NBA Draft and returning for his senior season.

Dorn did not retain an agent so he had the option to return. He announced his decision on his Twitter feed.

“I’m thankful I had the opportunity to go through the draft process, but at this time I have decided to WITHDRAWAL MY NAME FROM THE NBA DRAFT and return to NC State,” Dorn wrote. “I want to thank the NBA teams, personnel and Coach (Kevin) Keatts for the feedback and support during the process.

“While going through the experience, I didn’t miss any workouts at NC State and I’M EXCITED TO GET BACK WITH ME TEAMMATES as we look to build upon last year’s trip to the NCAA Tournament.”

Dorn averaged 13.9 points and 6.3 rebounds per game last season.
