It's the final day to withdraw from the NBA Draft - let's get into the latest news and notes.

Matt Able announced he is withdrawing and will play for North Carolina next season. It's a major win for new head coach Michael Malone as he builds out his first roster in Chapel Hill.

Texas Tech's Christian Anderson and Santa Clara's Allen Graves both announced they will remain in the draft. Anderson was a third-team All American and first-team All-Big 12 player last season, averaging 18.5 points and 7.4 assists per game. He was the third-best shooter overall at the NBA Combine earlier this month. Graves was the WCC Freshman, Sixth Man, and Defensive Player of the Year. He's an analytics darling who projects well at the next level.

Notable decisions still on the board: Milan Momcilovic (Iowa State/Portal), Tyler Tanner (Vanderbilt), Koa Peat (Arizona), Tounde Yessoufou (Baylor/Portal), Amari Allen (Alabama), Jeremy Fears Jr. (Michigan State), Andrej Stojakovic (Illinois), Meleek Thomas & Billy Richmond (Arkansas).

Of the above group, Peat and Yessoufou are the most likely to keep their names in the draft, according to Basket Under Review sources. There's always one surprise decision every year, so keep your eyes peeled all day long.

The Charleston Classic field is taking shape, according to a report from Jon Rothstein. Oklahoma State, Dayton, Northwestern, Utah, Minnesota, and Virginia Tech will take up six of the eight spots in the annual tournament held at TD Arena. The final two spots are still to be determined. The event recently moved from an 8-team bracket to two four-team pods.

Indiana and Kentucky will meet at Lucas Oil Stadium on November 20, according to a release. It's the second of a four-game series with the final two games hosted on campus by each team in 2027 and 2028. Last season, the Wildcats beat the Hoosiers 72-60 at Rupp Arena.
