By the end of Maryland men's basketball's 2019-20 season, Anthony Cowan Jr. will be a staple in program all-time lists. He could be top 10 or even top five in scoring (he's currently 17th). He could be top-five in assists (currently tied for 10th). He could easily reach No. 2 in starts, with an outside chance at the top spot.
But none of this will matter to him if next March ends in heartbreak again.
Cowan declared for the NBA Draft this past spring, but announced May 29 that he would return for his senior season, saying he had "unfinished business" at Maryland. His motives are clear to everyone in the Terps' locker room.
