Seth Lundy has declared for the 2023 NBA Draft, he announced via Twitter Wednesday. He will forego his remaining eligibility, as well, after a big year for Penn State this past season.

“I am forever grateful to all my coaches and coaching staffs past and present who helped guide me, develop me and help me become a better person both on and off the court,” Lundy wrote. “Thank you to my teammates who made these past four years unforgettable. My time at Penn State has been nothing short of a blessing. I’ve cherished every moment and will always call this place home.

“With that said, I will be foregoing my extra year of eligibility and entering my name in the 2023 NBA Draft. This has been a lifelong dream of mine and I’m excited to embark on this journey.”

Lundy was a key player for Penn State this season, helping the Nittany Lions to the second round of the NCAA Tournament. He ranked second on the roster with 14.2 points per game while shooting 45% from the field, including 40% from three-point distance.

More on the 2023 NBA Draft

The 2023 NBA Draft is set to take place on Thursday, June 22, 2023, in Brooklyn at Barclays Center. Round 1 of the draft will be announced by NBA Commissioner Adam Silver, while Deputy Commissioner Mark Tatum is expected to handle the second round of picks.

To be eligible for the NBA Draft, players must be at least 19 years in age during the calendar year that the draft is held and at least one NBA season from their high school graduation date, or the date that would have been if they are not graduated. It is not required that player spend that one year playing college basketball, though. Players can play in either college, abroad, or the G League Ignite if they choose so.

While this is a significant change from what the rules once were, players are eligible to enter their names into the NBA Draft pool and explore their options by hiring an agent to go through the process, while still keeping their college eligibility. The deadline to make that move is on April 23 beginning at 11:59 p.m. ET. Players have until June 12 at 5 p.m. ET to withdraw their name from the pool and return to college.

The NBA Draft Lottery will be held on May 16, which is also the start of the NBA Conference Finals.
