Withdraws from school, will turn pro

Melton (not-injury related) announced Wednesday in a post on his personal Twitter account that he has withdrawn from USC and will enter the professional ranks.
ANALYSIS
Following a productive freshman campaign in 2016-17 in which he averaged 8.3 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game, Melton never saw the floor this season after he was named in an FBI probe into college basketball. Prosecutors alleged that a family friend of Melton accepted $5,000 in return for steering the point guard to a particular agent upon turning pro, though Melton's attorney has denied those claims. USC had since held Melton out of competition while conducting its own investigation into the matter before determining in January that the 19-year-old wouldn't play in 2017-18. Rather than awaiting potential clearance from USC and the NCAA for next season, Melton decided it was in his best interest to head to the NBA, where his defensive skills could make him an interesting commodity for teams drafting at the end of the first round in June.
