He was also the team's second-leading rebounder at 5.8 per game. He posted career-best numbers in those two categories, as well as minutes (32.1), field-goal percentage (44.7), three-point shooting (41.7), assists (94), steals (36) and blocks (17).
Nolley declared for the draft in the spring, initially leaving the door open for a possible return to UC. However, he later signed with an agent. He signed with the Pelicans June 23 after going undrafted in the NBA's two rounds.
