Riding high after a thrilling national championship victory, two of Villanova's top players are set to test their NBA draft stocks.

Guard Josh Hart and forward Kris Jenkins revealed Wednesday that they'll declare for the draft. Neither player will hire an agent, allowing them both to withdraw their names by May 25.

Hart, a 6-foot-5 guard, averaged a team-high 15.5 points for this year's NCAA champions.

Jenkins, a 6-foot-6 forward, averaged 13.6 points per game and instantly became a household name when he drilled the championship-winning 3-ball at the buzzer on Monday.

Both players will be seniors next season if they return to school.
