Michigan's Charles Matthews Enters NBA Draft Without Hiring Agent

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) - Michigan standout Charles Matthews is entering the NBA draft without hiring an agent, giving him the option to stay in school.

Matthews announced his decision on Friday.

He can start working out for NBA teams on Tuesday in the hopes of being picked to participate in the draft combine next month in Chicago. Matthews has until May 30 to stay in the draft or withdraw his name from consideration.
