Ayo Dosunmu has some unfinished business.

The Illinois star announced Friday that he has withdrawn from the NBA draft and will return to school for his junior season.

Dosunmu averaged team highs in points (16.6 per game) and assists (3.3) this past season. The 6-foot-5 guard also ranked fifth in the Big Ten in field-goal percentage (48.4%).

The Fighting Illini should be among the conference's top contenders with incoming four-star recruits Adam Miller and Andre Curbelo providing backcourt depth behind Dosunmu.
