Texas freshman F Myles Turner announced via YouTube video that he will enter the 2015 NBA Draft.

Turner, who averaged 10.1 points and 6.5 rebounds as a freshman, was a highly sought-after recruit in the 2014 class, choosing the Longhorns well after most of his fellow classmates made their destinations known.
