The deadline to declare for the 2014 NBA Draft came and went on Sunday night and several reports of the decisions of international prospects are just coming out.

According to Jonathan Givony of Draft Exrpess, who talked to You First Sports agent Pere Gallego, the agent for both Marcus Eriksson and Devon Van Oostrum, his clients have decided to declare for this year’s draft and did indeed toss their names into the pool before the deadline.
