Auburn guard Tahaad Pettiford announced Wednesday on social media that he is withdrawing from the NBA draft and returning to the Tigers for his sophomore season.”I’m back,” Pettiford said on Instagram.Pettiford was viewed as a second-round pick in this year’s draft. He said he plans to boost his stock during a second college season.”I was happy to go through the process, getting feedback from NBA teams,” the 6-foot-1 Pettiford told ESPN. “Going back to Auburn is a better situation for me. I see myself being a higher pick next year. It wasn’t 100 percent this year, so I didn’t want to take that chance.”Being a short guard, it won’t be easy to play in the league, but I know I can do it. It’s maybe not the right time.”
