Hawkins declares for NBA Draft

So proud of him!

His ability to shoot so efficiently off transition is insanely good and his #1 NBA trait, but he's got scorer mentality and defensive versatility that will continue to grow as he ages and gets stronger.

Four star recruit, #51 in his class- he trusted UConn and this staff to develop his talents, and everybody won. Thanks, Hawk! Going out a champion, now go get paid!

Also, thanks for all that tape that’s left behind to show to future recruits about how they’ll fit in and excel.

That’s the highest I’ve seen as everywhere else has him in the 16-24 range. Think if he works out well he’ll shoot up the boards like Bouknight did.

Easy decision. If you are a player, and you will get 1st round guaranteed money, you got to go.

Good luck Hawkins. I hope you end up on the Warriors.

Edited my post- if Golden State is actually picking 19th, that's definitely possible.
 
People will remember the total dominace when thinking back on this teams championship run. To me, the first thing that comes to mind will always be the Hawkins 3 with 5 minutes to go. That shot, an incredibly difficult one, sealed the title. Congrats Hawk and thanks for the memories!

Good for Hawk. As a Husky fan I am so proud of the way he has developed his game. He has earned and deserved this opportunity to cash in. This news most likely means Hurley and the coaching staff have gotten positive feedback that Hawk will be chosen in the first round and which means he gets that guaranteed contract. Within that context, I am glad Hawk is leaving for the NBA.

Go get your money, Hawk :) I wish nothing but the best for you and your family.
 
After a 5 year drought, this is now the 3rd year in a row a Husky will be drafted to the NBA. Let's get this pipeline goin' again! Could it be our first time having two players drafted since 2014???

I will certainly miss having a SG that legitimately any time he shot the ball I had full faith it was going in. The definition of a sniper. Best of luck, Jordan!
 
He will be a lottery pick. I can find the post but I predicted by the end of the tournament everyone would know who the best shooting guard in college was. He earned himself a shot at being a lottery pick. I think he can be in the Booker category once he fills out. Congrats to him…

This kid gave us so many memories, but that off balance three in the final when SDSU has just cut it to six is something I will always remember him for. He completely killed their momentum and I knew then we had a thumb ring.

Selfishly I hope he ends up on the Warriors. They need a stone-cold shooter to help Curry out. Also, it is a good organization with a winning culture. He will be under no pressure during the early years of his career to perform.

Dallas isn’t a bad fit either. He’d feast off of luka

He flipped a switch during the SJU loss on 1/15 when he went for 31 points on 9/16 shooting and was a superstar from that game forward. Was similar to what happened with Caron in his second season. Had a mini slump in March before the BET and then was on fire again.

Was such a pleasure to watch his development and admire his even keeled nature. And despite that, he was as cold blooded a shooter as you'll find in college bball. I'm a huge fan and think his skill set is perfectly suited to today's NBA.

I also have no doubt he'll continue to get stronger and tighten up his handle.

Good luck to you Jordan!!!

Yup. He was much more animated ever game going forward. His jumper is a thing of beauty as is the way he comes off of screens.

Rip and Ray did a great job working with him

You mean to help Curry and Klay out.

Warriors would be fun but I'm happy with him going anywhere other than Charlotte.
