Texas guard A.J. Abrams will return to school for his senior season after withdrawing his name from the NBA draft. "I received some positive feedback and constructive criticisms from the NBA teams that I worked out for, all of which should help me next year when I go through the process again," said Abrams, who worked out for Golden State and Sacramento. Abrams said Monday he sees himself competing for the point guard position at Texas after talking to NBA teams. "The NBA teams said I've got to play the point guard position," Abrams said. "I truly believe I'm a point guard. I'm a scoring point guard." Abrams, who averaged 16.5 points per game last season, will compete with Justin Mason and Dogus Balbay to play the point next season.

It was a joke he ever thought about entering the draft. What does he weight? 130?

Actually a smart move in going through the draft process. He now knows what he needs to work on for next year.
