I think after thetournament tucker had and all the publicity he got that he should declare himself elgible for the NBA. He could not take a agent and attend the camps, to see if there is a interest out there for him. Roger Powell of Illini did it last year and eventually came back. I think its a win win situation for him in that he gets his name out there further and he has a shot of making it. Plus as a UIC fan I'd luv not to see him not in a panther uniform. It sure would be nice tyo see more horizon league players in the NBA.
Is there a all tournament team? If there is I believe tucker should be on it despite the fact he would have played 3 less games than some players

32 points against the number team in the nation is an impressive stat to walk around with.
im not sure what the deal is with nba camps in the summer and what not. but im sure he will be looking into the next level this summer. but he will fo so be returning to milwaukee for his sr season.
next year we will have 6 sr's! Exciting times, but also, scary considering with in two years we will have a whole new team.

You are correct stomper, don't be shocked if Tucker declares himself for the draft and then pulls his name out. Sensley from Hawai'i did it last year and it helped him out ( in terms of getting his name out before the season started). The more competition he can play against this summer will only help him.

Tucker isn't declaring himself for the draft.
Three games doesn't make him a first or second round selection.

Nobody ever said he would get drafted, it's just a way to get his name out before his senior season. Why would declaring for the draft be a bad idea? He would be able to go through some workouts to find out what teams think about him and what areas he needs to aprove on.

To play in the NBA, Tucker is going to have to become a better outside shooter like Quentin Richardson has become. Q was a very similar type player in college at DePaul but has become a outside force in the NBA the last few years, translating into big bucks and Brandy!!!!
