AMES, Iowa (AP) — Milan Momcilovic, Iowa State’s leading scorer and the nation’s most accurate 3-point shooter, will enter the transfer portal and declare for the NBA draft while maintaining his college eligibility, he announced on social media Sunday.
Momcilovic averaged 16.9 points per game and shot 48.7% on 3s this past season, making a nation-leading 136 on 279 attempts. He started 101 of his 102 games and averaged 13.2 points and shot 42.8% on 3s in three seasons for the Cyclones.
“The last three years have been the best of my life, and you have been a major part of that,” Momcilovic wrote in his message to fans. “The experience of playing in Hilton Coliseum in front of the best fans in the country is something I will always cherish and remember.”
Momcilovic said he would turn his focus to the draft, but left open the possibility of playing at another college.
Underclassmen can maintain their eligibility by hiring an NCAA-certified agent, receiving an evaluation from the NBA undergraduate advisory committee and withdrawing from the draft by May 27 at 11:59 p.m. EDT.
“Milan and I have had meaningful discussions about his future over the last couple of weeks,” Iowa State coach TJ Otzelberger wrote on X. “He needs to focus on what is best for him and his family. We can’t thank him enough for what he has done for our program. We look forward to following him as he pursues his dream of playing in the NBA.”
