Texas A&M junior Donald Sloan has submitted his name for the 2009 NBA Draft but will not hire an agent, giving him the option of returning to the Aggies for his senior season.

"My dream has always been to play in the NBA," Sloan said. "I appreciate Coach [Mark] Turgeon's support as I go through this process. I love A&M and my teammates and if things don't work out in the draft, I'll come back and get ready for what could be a special season for us next year."

Sloan, a 6-foot-3 guard from Dallas, was the Aggies' second-leading scorer last season with an 11.8 points per game and led the team in assists with 3.1.

The NBA Draft is June 25.
