I've already accepted that Okorie is gone.
As I think it's for sure he's drafted in some round.
And I just can't imagine any realistic scenario where's drafted and yet decides to reject it and return to LSJU.

If he doesn’t like his draft position, the portal is next. Agree he’s gone.

He could change his mind, of course, but he's previously told the coaching staff if he isn't drafted (because he withdraws not liking his likely position) he's returning to Stanford. And we are holding aside a honey pot of NIL money until he decides. Could change his mind, of course, but that's the plan as of now.

Unfortunately there is no way to really know what your draft position will be. I am sure that there are teams that are saying something like "If you are still on the board when we pick, we will draft you". However, he can't hold them to that. If some other very skilled player unexpectedly slips to said teams pick, they very understandably may not keep their promise. That is just part of the system. Therefore withdrawing would only make sense if nobody indicated they would draft him in the first round. From what little we know from mock drafts that isn't the case, so IMO it is virtually certain he will not withdraw from the draft.
