Five-star recruit Bowen to enter NBA Draft, will not hire agent

South Carolina forward Chris Silva declares for the NBA Draft

South Carolina forward Chris Silva declares for the NBA Draft

The current SC freshman has not signed with an agent, so his eligibility should not be affected by his decision to declare for the draft. But when the FBI investigation into college basketball dropped in September, Bowen found himself in the middle of the case as he was a player identified in the court documents. He committed to Louisville in early June despite the Cardinals' being one of the last teams to recruit him. In the complaint, Adidas executives were accused of funneling $100,000 to Bowen's family-with coach Rick Pitino's knowledge-to secure Bowen's commitment to Louisville. That payment was allegedly handled by then- Adidas' director of global sports marketing James Gatto and approved by Hall of Fame coach Rick Pitino, who was sacked by the school before the 2017-18 season began. I saw him against another great player from Indiana. We spent zero dollars recruiting a five-star athlete who I loved when I saw him play.

It's been a unusual couple of months for Brian Bowen in college basketball.

Bowen was later granted a release from Louisville and joined Frank Martin and the South Carolina Gamecocks in January. If not, he'll hope to catch on with an National Basketball Association team.

Bowen is still awaiting word on his eligibility with SC for the 2018-19 season, but he will declare for the 2018 NBA Draft as a precautionary measure, according to ESPN's Jeff Goodman.

"This is a mature move from Brian", Bowen's lawyer Jason Setchen added.

Bowen's draft status is uncertain, as scouts have yet to see what the 6-foot-7 forward can do against college level competition. All without playing a game. "With the opportunity to declare, he will be able to gather more information and get a feel for what the NBA's opinions of him are".
