Iowa State says Emmanuel Malou will skip his remaining college eligibility and enter the NBA draft.

Malou, a 6-foot-9 forward from Melbourne, Australia, was one of the nation’s top junior college prospects when he signed with Iowa State in November.

Malou, who turned down Arizona, Kansas and Oregon in favor of the Cyclones, transferred to a local community college and sat out the 2015 to 2016 in hopes of getting his academics in order.

But Malou said Wednesday that he has signed with agent and will pursue a professional career.
