Klay Thompson announced Monday that he will enter the NBA draft.

Thompson won't hire an agent and could pull out of the draft before May 8.

In a story on ESPN.com, Mychal Thompson, Klay's father, said it is an "exploratory move."

"He wants to get a couple of workouts to see where he fits," said Mychal Thompson, a Lakers radio color commentator and talk show host for 710 ESPN in Los Angeles. "All the scouts love him. They love his complete game. I'm getting very favorable feedback."
