(AP) Creighton point guard Maurice Watson Jr. is returning to the Bluejays after withdrawing from consideration for the NBA draft.Watson, whose decision was announced Friday in a news release from the school, was a second-team All-Big East pick last season after leading the Bluejays with 14.1 points and 6.5 assists.
