Greg Smith Declares for NBA Draft

Excerpt from the Fresno Bee:

Sophomore center Greg Smith, the top rebounder and second-leading scorer on the Fresno State men's basketball team, is jumping to the NBA.

Smith, 20, said Thursday afternoon that the instability of the basketball team affected his decision. "With all the uncertainty with the program and Cleve being coach ... it's my time to take my game to the next level."

Smith's uncle and father figure, Stephen Shelley, said the move was "official" and that this was "no testing of the waters." After Fresno State announced its Thursday evening press conference, Shelley reiterated that his nephew isn't looking back.
