His posse is probably telling him to go pro so he can make big money. shite like "all SEC last year man" you gotta go pro and make the big bucks.

if he thinks he is getting drafted then he got the worst advice in the world. he is a below the rim guy who is pretty undersized for his position in the nba. I like him but the kid needs another year

this is the only thing I can think of but he just has to deal with school for really one more semester and he can go pro.

Who knows his situation. I think he's making a mistake, but it's his life. Good luck to him,

Horrible excuse.

Aside from the fact that he needs something to fall back on that is a lame excuse.

Needs another year to be great. And he could always major in gen ed or some crap.

Im sure JOB has solid information on his draft stock. I'd say with 99% confidence he has better information than you.

Would coming back really improve his stock? He's more than likely not going to grow so he won't become that above the rim player.

Except for the whole "we don't have an economy anymore" thing.

These countries don't have legal systems like the US. If they can't pay you, they won't pay you, and you can't do shite about it.

He could work on his shot, and also get the all important hype machine working for him.

We can come back and revisit this when he isn't drafted.

Could improve his mid range play, post moves, defense, and rebounding. Cannot get more athletic, but can prove to be a more polished post player. Plus add name recognition.

An extra year would work wonders for his mid-range game.
