Fazekas Leaving Nevada Early

According to the Reno Gazette-Journal Nevada senior Nick Fazekas, the school's all-time leading scorer will be withdrawing and not completing his final semester so that he may train for the upcoming NBA Draft. The 6-11 Fazekas was named first team All-American by several pubilcations and was one of only three D-1 players to finish the season averaging better than 20 points and 10 rebounds per game.
Nevada head coach Mark Fox wasn't thrilled with his stars decision to not complete school, but understands it happens in today's college game.
"Unfortunately, it's probably fairly common," Fox said in the Gazette-Journal report. "I want him to finish his education. One day, I think he will. That's very, very important to me and I think it is to him, too."
Based on scouting reports, Fazekas will likely be a first round selection in the draft.
