UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. - Atlantic 10 Player of the Year and Associated Press Honorable Mention All-American Kevin Anderson has withdrawn his name from next month's NBA Draft and will return for his senior year.

"After exploring my options and getting feedback on my dream of playing in the NBA, I have decided to return to Richmond for my senior year," Anderson said. "I love the University of Richmond, my teammates and coaches. What I have learned going through this process will only benefit myself and my teammates as we try to bring the Atlantic 10 Championship and another NCAA Tournament berth to Richmond next year."

Anderson declared for the NBA Draft on April 19, but did not sign with an agent. By removing his name from consideration by the May 8 deadline, Anderson maintains his final season of eligibility.
 
He's not a NBA player. He would go undrafted next year. He's a heck of a college player, but NBA material he is not. If you gave him 3-4 more inches than maybe. Anderson is not 6'0, 5'10 max. that's not going to cut it in the NBA unless you are exceptional in some way (speed, shooting etc.). Anderson does not have that special something to set him apart and negate the size disparity with other guards in the draft who can do the same things just as well or better with 3-4 inches on him.
