Junior guard Jacob Pullen will return for his senior season in 2010-11 after exploring his professional opportunities, head coach Frank Martin announced Sunday night.
Pullen had until Sunday to decide whether he would enter the 2010 NBA Draft as an underclassman.
With his return in the 2010-11 season, as well as those of fellow rising senior starters, Curtis Kelly and Dominique Sutton, K-State once again should challenge for the Big 12 title and a spot in the NCAA Tournament.
In all, the Wildcats will return 10 lettermen, including Big 12 Sixth Man of the Year Jamar Samuels, while they will welcome four newcomers (Freddy Asprilla, Juevol Myles, Shane Southwell and Will Spradling).
