Syracuse trio enter names in Draft

Big East tournament MVP Jonny Flynn, Eric Devendorf and Paul Harris of Syracuse plan to enter their names into the upcoming NBA Draft, the university said Thursday.

Flynn said he will not retain an agent, giving him the option to return to school. He led the Orange in scoring at 17.4 points per game and set an Orange record by playing 1,418 minutes. After just two seasons, he ranks seventh in career assists (439) at Syracuse.

Devendorf, a senior academically, averaged 15.7 points, overcoming a knee injury that sidelined him for most of 2007-08.

Harris, a junior, has 1,253 points in three seasons with the Orange and has logged 107 games, 72 as a starter. Harris, who averaged 12 points and 8.1 rebounds this past season, has 28 double-doubles, ninth all-time at Syracuse.
