The 2012 NBA Draft will feature plenty of early entrants. There are already a bevy of players who were planning on entering the draft before their senior year of college. Following the 2012 NCAA Tournament, that number will only increase in the coming months as talented players attempt to go pro.

One of the players who is set to announce his entry in the NBA Draft is Ohio St. Buckeyes star forward Jared Sullinger. Jeff Goodman of CBS Sports reported that Sullinger is expected to make his official announcement on Wednesday.

Update: As expected, Sullinger officially announced Wednesday that he’s leaving Ohio State for the NBA.
