North Carolina State sophomore T.J. Warren and Indiana freshman Noah Vonleh will enter the 2014 NBA Draft, reports indicated this week.

Yahoo Sports reported on Monday that Warren has decided to enter the highly-anticipated NBA Draft in June, and the NC State star is planning to inform his coaches about his decision anytime this week.

"Warren reached the decision with his family on Sunday and had been expected to inform the N.C. State coaching staff of his decision early this week," Yahoo Sports reported.

Warren had an excellent season for the Wolfpack as he averaged 24.9 points and 7.1 rebounds after tallying just 12.1 points and 4.2 rebounds in his freshman season.

The 20-year-old forward, who was named as the 2014 ACC Player of the Year, helped the Wolfpack earn a tournament berth this year, but NC State suffered an early exit, absorbing an 83-80 overtime loss to the Saint Louis Billikens in the second round.

Warren, who scored 28 points in his final game with NC State, is projected to be selected between No. 15 and No. 25 overall in this year's draft. DraftExpress listed Warren as the 18th best prospect this year.

Meanwhile, Vonleh, who is considered as one of the top prospects in the stacked 2014 rookie draft, has announced his decision to turn pro after his freshman season with the Indiana Hoosiers.

The freshman forward informed CBS Sports about his decision on Sunday.

Vonleh failed to help the Hoosiers earn an NCAA Tournament berth this year, and he admitted that leaving Indiana without an NCAA tournament appearance was a tough decision.

"It's going to suck leaving college without an NCAA Tournament, but I have to do what's best form me," Vonleh said.

Sources indicated that Vonleh, who averaged 11.3 points and 9.0 rebounds this season, is expected to go in the lottery, and has the potential to be selected somwhere between the fourth or 12th overall pick in June.

DraftExpress projected Warren to be selected seventh overall in this year's draft.
