    DJ Stewart not returning next season

    According to Paul Jones, he's signed with an agent and is not returning.

    This sucks.

    Ouch, that's gonna leave a mark. The weather in Greece is great.......So much for Howland being excited about this team......I know we have some good folks on board but this one is gonna hurt a little.......

    Made the announcement early, so hopefully time to replace him

    This team has 4 legit starters. Just need to find a good facilitator.

    He probably got good feedback from scouts, it's the same reason Woodard stayed in last year and ended up signing a 3 million dollar guaranteed deal so if so, I can't blame him.

    It's a big hit but we still have Molinar, Jeffries, Brooks and Tolu... thats still one heck of a team. Howland needs to bring in another grad transfer or two now.

    The bright spot is that we have a better shot now with some of these transfer guards now that we have a starting position open. It was going to be a tough sell to convince a guy to transfer here to come off the bench, even if they had good minutes

    Mistake, but it's his call. He's not getting drafted. Could've come back and improved his game. He'll be overseas. Maybe he can get a team and the D League.

    Not a good decision on his part IMO. His ball handling isn't NBA level, but hey his decision so he's got to live with it.

    Supposedly he was told he will not be drafted and should go back to school, but signed with an agent anyway.

    Dumb, but 21 yr olds usually are...

    Come on down Shakeel Moore and/or Rocket Watts.

    The silver lining is that this makes it much easier for us to sign and start a true point guard. We weren't going to convince an impactful transfer to come in and sit on the bench while DJ started at the point this year.

    If that's true, bad decision on whoever is giving him feedback to remain in the draft, I can't judge him, he may need the money for his family. Good luck to him though

    We are still better than last year with the additions of Jeffries and Brooks. Molinar, Tolu and Fountain are still here too. Now we need to go get a really good gaurd out of the Portal. We can still be a really good team
