Iowa State junior Craig Brackins is both expected to declare for the NBA Draft.

A source close to the situation told FOXSports.com that Brackins will make an announcement in the next few days.

Iowa State lost to Texas, 82-75, in the first round of the Big 12 tournament on Wednesday night.

It's expected that the 6-foot-10, 230-pound Brackins, a California native, will ultimately sign with an agent.

He earned a spot on the Big 12 all-league first team as a sophomore last season and still had a solid year as a junior, averaging 16.5 points and 8.6 rebounds.

According to NBA executives, Brackins' stock has fallen this season, but he could still be a first-round pick in the June NBA Draft.
