The deadline for players not still participating in the NCAA tournament to make a decision was April 1, and while [URL='https://www.wnba.com/news/wnba-announces-players-who-have-opted-in-for-consideration-for-2021-wnba-draft-presented-by-state-farm/']many prominent players did submit their names[/URL]—including Louisville star Dana Evans—NC State seniors Kai Crutchfield and Kayla Jones were not among them. This doesn’t necessarily mean that both players plan to return to NC State for another season, as they could always pursue professional opportunities overseas—[URL='https://go.redirectingat.com/?id=66960X1516590&xs=1&url=https://www.espn.com/wnba/story/_/id/31132138/wnba-mock-draft-2021-version-30-texas-longhorns-charli-collier-projected-go-no-1-dallas-wings&referrer=sbnation.com&sref=https://www.backingthepack.com/nc-state-wolfpack-women/2021/4/4/22367056/kai-crutchfield-kayla-jones-wnba-draft-nc-state-wolfpack&xcust=___sb__p_22131097__t_w__r_google.com__d_D']and neither one appears likely to be selected in the draft[/URL], which is set for April 15.
