Julian Wright to return to Kansas next season

Julian Wright, a 6-foot-9 sophomore, said he will return to Kansas for his junior season in 2007-08, even though he is considered a potential lottery pick in June’s NBA draft.

Wright has averaged 12.1 points and 7.9 rebounds in 37 games this season with the Jayhawks.

"The route to getting better is to stay in college," Wright said. "The NBA is more of a skills setting."
