Virginia's Singletary to enter draft

There is a Sunday deadline for applying for early entry to the June 28 draft. Players who don't hire an agent can withdraw their names until June 18 and return to school.

"I understand Sean's interest in learning more about the process and feel this step will enable him to gather a great deal of information," Leitao said.

A co-captain the last two seasons, Singletary averaged 19 points, 4.7 assists and 4.6 rebounds this season. He also made 87.2 percent of his free throws.

Virginia finished 21-11 and reached the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2001, advancing to the second round.
