Houston guard Milos Uzan will declare for the 2025 NBA Draft after helping the Cougars reach the NCAA Tournament final.

The 6-foot-4 junior’s agent, Aman Dhesi of PNW Sports Group, confirmed the decision with ESPN on Sunday.

Uzan averaged 11.4 points, 4.3 assists and 3.1 rebounds and shot 42.8 percent from 3-point range while starting all 40 games in his lone season with the Cougars (35-5) in 2024-25. He made the All-Big 12 second team.

He scored 22 points in top-seeded Houston’s 62-60 win against fourth-seeded Purdue in the Sweet 16, including the game-winning layup with 0.9 seconds left. Uzan also scored a career-high 25 points in the Cougars’ 72-64 win against Arizona in the Big 12 tournament title game.

Uzan, 22, has one season of eligibility remaining. The Las Vegas native transferred to Houston after two seasons at Oklahoma, where he averaged 8.3 points, 3.7 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 64 games (56 starts) from 2022-24.

Uzan has until May 28 to decide whether to withdraw from the June 25-26 draft. ESPN has him ranked as the No. 42 overall draft prospect.
