That is great news!
And with the Transfer Portal deadline for Fall & Winter athletes coming tomorrow, I’m really hoping that the only news we get is everyone else staying as well. I like what we have right now for next year. Keep everybody and have both CB and JWil return and we will be in great shape for next season with senior & junior experience and perhaps a better all around team (recognizing that freshmen are so often “What the ???”).
Fingers crossed!
But no matter what — glad we got KJ coming back!

I’d love to hear everyone’s opinion on who KJ is as a player. I love his energy, but have zero clue as to what his game is. can’t believe he’s a “big” at 6-7, but that’s kinda where he was pegged last season.
Maybe a monster rebounder?

I love CB's attitude and approach to the game and I think he could be "Da Man" next season...but ESPN is projecting him as a late first rounder, so unless he gets crazy negative feedback I suspect he's gone...

USAFJ, I know it’s looking like CB may be gone. Doesn’t stop me from dreaming.
Several mock drafts have in in the middle to late slots in the first round, so he’s certainly starting from a good position. But those are mock drafts and the evaluation of actual NBA coaches, scouts and general managers will be much more telling for Braun.
... If the feedback is positive and lines up with what he wants and needs to hear, Braun will be gone.
