Memphis sophomore <a href= is heading to the NBA. 

Thomas came into the program as a McDonald's All-American but fell shy of expectations in his first two seasons with the Tigers. 

Memphis coach Josh Pastner told CBSSports.com that Thomas is signing with an agent. 

The 6-foot-7 forward averaged 11.7 points and 4.5 rebounds this past season and is considered a second-round pick by most NBA executives.
