Texas A&M sophomore forward Robert Williams told reporters he's "definitely" declaring for the 2018 NBA Draft in the locker room following the Aggies' season-ending 99-72 loss to Michigan on Thursday night in Los Angeles.

Williams' decision comes with little surprise as he could potentially be a lottery pick in this summer's draft.

He could have declared following his freshman season after wowing scouts with his size and athleticism, but passed on being potentially picked in the first round to return to school.

As two-time SEC Defensive Player of the Year, Williams was known for his defense, especially his blocks. He held a 41-game streak with a block that was snapped early in SEC play this season and recorded 155 blocks during his two-year A&M career, which ranks third in school history.

This year, Williams battled a multitude of issues. He was suspended for the first two games of the season and also missed games early on due to the flu and concussion-like symptoms. Still, Williams came into his own during conference play and averaged 10.3 points and 9.3 rebounds per game.

He scored 12 points, grabbed six rebounds and blocked three shots in A&M's 27-point loss to Michigan.
