Had a buddy check it out cause I don't have facebook. He said Stokes posted that status with a picture. He said it says "Last week with my bros...." which IMO is referring to the pic being from last week. It doesn't say "This is my last week...."

Also, the pic posted with the status on facebook was also posted to his instagram LAST WEEK.

IMO Stokes is saying "this is a picture taken last week with my bro's"

Because it's a picture with a quote.

He posted a picture of him with his friends taken last week. He types "Last week with my bros"

The quote "last week with my bros" goes with the picture of him and his bros that was taken last week.

I can see it being read both ways.

Sure hope he stays. Would be good for CCM, UT as well as Stokes. UT would be a potential Top 10 team if he stays, it would take some heat off CCM and Stokes could improve his game to be a 1st round guaranteed money pick. If he comes out, I think he will end up regretting it for a long time.

It's obvious he's saying that's a picture from last week. My buddy just sent me a screen shot of the post. For further evidence, he posted the same picture LAST WEEK on instagram.

Besides, if Stokes is declaring, he would be here at least two more weeks. He's not going to blow off school a week before finals start. I don't think he's that kind of kid.

He may go pro, but this picture isn't an indicator.

Would agree but not sure he feels like his stock would improve with one more year. He kinda is what he is. Dont really think he is going to develop an outside shot in a year. For a kid who dreams of playing in the NBA, if the opportunity is there I'd bet $$$ he takes it.

His offensive game would have to dramatically improve for him to be a 1st rounder in next years draft.

Sorry for the butthurt. Conceed the picture was from last week. Maybe he meant his last week to be with his boys because they will be studying for the finals. good grief, I was only saying it could be interpreted differently.

It's not just an outside shot he needs to develop. He is very limited overall offensively. He has very little offensive skills outside of putting back missed shots. That will not be so easy in the NBA. Honestly I don't see him getting drafted at all this year. He needs to work on his game and develop some explosiveness as evidenced by how many times he had his shot blocked this year. Would hate to see him make the same mistake Hopson did.

Which others? If it was seniors maybe he's referring to them leaving? Also, school isn't over next week, so why would it be his last week? If he was gonna drop out he'd have done it awhile ago I would think.

Not saying you're wrong or that he's staying, just playing devils advocate.

As easy as it is to get injured I would not blame Stokes if he decides to leave early. Whether or not he will end up in Europe or the NBA remains to be seen. Ultimately I hope he returns for at least one more season.
