Florida State forward and potential lottery selection Scottie Barnes will sign with an agent and enter this year’s draft, Jon Rothstein of CBS tweets.

Barnes is currently ranked No. 10 overall and No. 3 among small forwards on ESPN’s Best Available list. The one-and-done Barnes averaged 10.3 PPG, 4.1 RPG, 4.0 APG and 1.5 SPG in his lone college campaign, which spanned 24 games (seven starts). He scored a season-high 21 points against Georgia Tech in the ACC Tournament final.

Barnes is essentially a point forward who projects as a versatile defender capable of guarding any position. He has a 7’2” wingspan and a solid frame, though his perimeter shooting is a work in progress (27.5% on 3-point attempts).
