MANHATTAN, Kan. — Kansas State basketball got a shot in the arm Wednesday night when senior-to-be Xavier Sneed withdrew from the NBA Draft.

Sneed will return for his final season with the Wildcats.

Sneed average 10.6 ppg and 5.5 rpg his junior season for a Kansas State team that tied for the league title, helping end KU's streak of 14-straight Big 12 titles.

His return is huge for a Wildcat team that had already lost two of its leading scorers to graduation.
