Camby May Opt For Draft

Compiled From Wire Services

Marcus Camby may be ready to enter the NBA draft rather than take another shot at winning an NCAA title with Massachusetts, but the 6-foot-11 center would not confirm the report that claims he will announce his decision to turn pro Monday.

After initially refusing to release center omm’A Givens from his basketball scholarship so he could transfer to Pepperdine, UCLA has changed its mind.

Givens, a 6-foot-10 sophomore, who played at Aberdeen High in Washington, saw little action in two years at UCLA. Givens is close to former Bruins assistant Lorenzo Romar, who was hired as coach at Pepperdine in February.

Givens played in the State B basketball tournament as a freshman at Raymond High before transferring to Aberdeen.
