DALLAS (AP) — Ohio State junior Kelsey Mitchell is returning for her senior season.

Mitchell released a statement Wednesday saying she would not enter the WNBA draft early and will come back to the Buckeyes.

The two-time Big Ten Player of the Year was eligible for this year's draft because her 22nd birthday is in 2017.

She is third on the school's career scoring list and fifth in conference history with 2,553 points. Mitchell earned second-team AP All-America honors on Monday.
