Notre Dame Men’s Basketball: Markus Burton to Withdraw from NBA Draft and Return to ND

Although this was largely the expected result, Notre Dame Fighting Irish men’s hoops fans can breathe a collective sigh of relief now that it’s official — Markus Burton is returning to Notre Dame for the 2024-2025 season.

Notre Dame's Markus Burton tells me that he will withdraw from the 2024 NBA Draft and return to school next season.

Averaged 17.5 PPG, 4.3 APG, and 3.3 RPG last year as a freshman.

Will be one of the best guards in the ACC in 2024-25.— Jon Rothstein (@JonRothstein) May 17, 2024

Burton had entered his name into the NBA Draft so as to collect feedback on what he needs to work on to eventually make it to the league.
