Memphis wing Landers Nolley is no longer testing the NBA draft waters.

Earlier Sunday, the 20-year-old announced his intention to enter the draft while maintaining his college eligibility by not signing with an agent. He's since changed his mind and now intends to honor his commitment to Memphis, Nolley told Jason Munz of The Memphis Commercial Appeal.

The 20-year-old recently left Virginia Tech for Memphis and was considered ESPN's top-ranked sit-out transfer.

Nolley averaged 15.5 points and 5.8 rebounds last season en route to earning ACC All-Freshman honors. He scored the sixth-most total points in the ACC (495) on a conference-leading 33.9 usage rate.
