Yogi Ferrell's stay-or-NBA press conference, scheduled for Saturday night, has been canceled.

BLOOMINGTON -- In light of the death of IU student Hannah Wilson, Yogi Ferrell and his family have postponed Ferrell's planned Saturday night press conference announcing his stay-or-NBA decision.

They made the announcement in a press release Saturday morning. Ferrell had planned the press conference for a steak house on the north side of Indianapolis.

In the release, the Ferrell family expressed condolences for Wilson's family.

The NBA's deadline for early entrants to declare for the draft is 11:59 p.m. April 26, so Ferrell will have to make a final decision by Sunday night.
