Saric has been waffling on the decision for months, with various reports indicating he was in or out every other week. He's considered to be a consensus top-20 pick, with Draft Express listing him as high as ninth in its mock draft. He comes in at No. 11, No. 16 and No. 17 on various CBSSports.com mock drafts.
He averaged 16 points, 9.5 rebounds and three assists this season for Cibona Zagreb.

Los Angeles Clippers turn warm-up shirts inside out to hide team logo in apparent protest of Donald Sterling
Adam Silver said he felt particularly sorry for the Clippers’ players and coaches during the NBA’s investigation of Donald Sterling’s alleged racist comments.
It’s not their fault the team’s owner has brought so much negative attention to the franchise during a playoff run. They’re left in an awkward position – trying to balance their own professional goals with playing for Sterling’s team.
Before today’s Game 4, Doc Rivers even admitted he’s not sure how the players are handling it.
Today, they showed their response.

I'm hearing Clipper players will be turning their team-issued gear inside out (except for uniforms) for all of Game 4. #DonaldSterling—

What a powerful image created by the players, hitting strong notes of protest and determination.
Matt Barnes, Reggie Bullock, Darren Collison, Jamal Crawford, Glen Davis, Jared Dudley, Danny Granger, Willie Green, Blake Griffin, Ryan Hollins, DeAndre Jordan, Chris Paul, J.J. Redick and Hedo Turkoglu are playing for themselves today – not Sterling’s Clippers.
