LSU guard Antonio Blakeney, who earned All-SEC freshman team honors in 2015-16, has announced that he will test the waters of the new NBA Draft system that will help determine his immediate future.

Blakeney has said he will not hire an agent at this time and that under the new rules in place this year as authored by the NCAA, NBA and National Association of Basketball Coaches, would leave him the opportunity to return for his sophomore season.
