Kansas guard Wayne Selden Jr. (1), forward Perry Ellis, center, and guard Kelly Oubre Jr. celebrate with Kansas forward Landen Lucas (33) after Lucas took a charge from Baylor forward Rico Gathers (2) during the second half, Saturday, Feb. 14, 2015 at Allen Fieldhouse.

Kansas University junior forward Perry Ellis has decided to return to KU for his senior season, Ellis revealed at Monday night’s postseason awards banquet at Lawrence’s Holiday Inn.

“There’s still a lot left on the table, and I feel like it would be best for me to come back,” Ellis said after winning KU’s Danny Manning Mr. Jayhawk award.

The 6-foot-8 Wichita native was considered a possible second-round NBA Draft pick after averaging 13.8 points and 6.9 boards his junior season.

Ellis led the Jayhawks in scoring and rebounding in 2014-15, while making 45.7 percent of his shot attempts and hitting 18 of 46 three-pointers (39.1 percent).

In conference games, those numbers improved to 15.1 points and 7.2 rebounds, as well as 50-percent shooting from the field and 47.6 percent accuracy (10-for-21) from long distance.
