Former Syracuse basketball player Rick Jackson finished his nine-city pre-draft workout tour Monday and returned to Syracuse to await Thursday's NBA Draft.

Jackson's agent told YNN sports Rick's final visit with the Chicago Bulls Monday was canceled which allowed him to come back to Syracuse a day early.

Jackson's workout tour took him coast-to-coast over the last three and a half weeks and included a stop with his hometown Philadelphia 76'ers.

His agent says Jackson will watch the draft with friends and family back home in Philly.
The NBA draft starts Thursday night at 7 p.m. in Newark.
