Mississippi State’s Abdul Ado has entered the NBA Draft process, but the intent is mostly for information-gathering purposes, sources tell The Dispatch.
A source close to the situation said Ado, a 6-foot-11 forward, fully intends to return for his senior season, but wanted to receive feedback from pro scouts.
MSU regulars Robert Woodard II, Reggie Perry and Nick Weatherspoon have announced their intentions to go pro. Only Woodard II has the option of returning to school.
Ado, known for his defensive prowess, averaged 5.7 points and 6.7 rebounds per game while making 31 starts for the Bulldogs in the 2019-2020 season.
