Baylor sophomore Cameron Carr is reportedly declaring for the 2026 NBA draft after one season with the Bears, according to Jonathan Givony of DraftExpress.
Carr was named to the All-Big 12 third team, averaging 18.9 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.3 steals while shooting 37.4% from 3-point range in 34 games. He finished with 642 points, the fifth-most in a season in program history.
The 6-foot-5 guard played at Tennessee during his freshman year before redshirting last season after suffering a left thumb injury in November 2024. He also earned a selection to the Big 12 All-Newcomer team for his play with the Bears.
Carr is currently projected to be a mid-to-late first-round pick after a productive year, in which he set the program scoring record for a sophomore. While his 3-point shooting stood out, Carr flourished as an overall scorer, mixing in shots from all three levels.
The 21-year-old is reportedly planning on staying in the draft and forgoing his remaining college eligibility. He will have the opportunity to further improve his draft stock in team workouts and interviews, as well as at the combine next month in Chicago, Illinois.
Carr is a part of a highly touted draft class with the likes of Darius Acuff Jr., Cameron Boozer, Mikel Brown Jr., AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson and Caleb Wilson projected to be high selections. The group is considered one of the most talented in recent memory.
