Texas A&M guard Admon Gilder has withdrew from the 2018 NBA draft and will return to school for his senior season.

Gilder revealed his decision via Twitter on Friday after declaring for the draft back on April 6.

The 6-4 shooting guard averaged 12.3 points and 4.1 rebounds in 32.0 minutes per game during the 2017-18 season.

Gilder shot 45.8 percent from the floor and 39.5 percent from beyond the arc while shooting 82.1 percent from the free-throw line.

Of the four Texas A&M players to declare for the draft, Gilder is the only one that will return to College Station for another season.

Robert Williams and DJ Hogg were the only two to enter the draft and announce their intentions to sign with an agent, but Tyler Davis decided earlier in the week to forgo his senior year and pursue professional opportunities.

The Aggies finished 22-13 overall this past season and advanced to the Sweet 16 before getting beat by eventual national runner-up Michigan.
