He can reply too, but I thought I would leave it to guys who have some intelligent insights.
I think he comes back next year because after all the talk started about him leaving with Jah, Tyus and Justise last season after he had a big championship game, my memory isn't great but I seem to remember him saying something to the effect that he wasn't in a rush to get to the NBA. Also if he's been on a 3 year graduation plan like some have said then I think he'll come back and finish his degree and I think he just really enjoys being in college. This might be the one & done era but not every really good/great player is looking to get to the NBA as fast as they can
He looks good enough to leave. And it's hard to see how he would improve his draft status all that much next year when the team focus will shift so much to the front court and the point will be better staffed.
So he should test the waters, listen to what the pros tell him, and if he is likely to get drafted at a reasonable spot, go for it.
I'm betting some team will promise to draft him in the 1st round, so that's probably what he'll do.

nbadraft.net now has Grayson Allen listed as a first-rounder in the 2017 draft. All season long he's been projected as a 2016 first-rounder. Hopefully this is a good sign.
