LITTLE ROCK — Arkansas junior Adou Thiero has declared for the 2025 NBA Draft, he announced via his Instagram account on Tuesday.

Thiero (6-8 3/4-combo forward) has been receiving late-first to second-round mock draft projections.

An NBA scout told Hogville in late March that he thought Thiero’s most likely Draft range was picks 40-60.

Prior to a knee injury that kept him out of the lineup for eight consecutive games at the end of the regular season and most of the postseason, Thiero led the team in scoring (15.6 points per game), rebounding (6.0), and steals (1.7) while shooting 54.8% from the field.

He did return for Arkansas’ NCAA Tournament Sweet Sixteen game, contributing 1 point, 1 rebound, and 1 turnover in only 5 minutes of playing time.

Thiero played his first two collegiate seasons at Kentucky before transferring to Arkansas in the offseason.
