yea i realize that euro pays more than NBDL, but I dont get why Miami is allowed to retain his contract, not have to pay him shite, and let a euro team pay him.
It's basically taking any and all risk away from teams if they can hold rights to players, let them play in europe and get paid, and then either cut them or sign them depending on how they do over there.
seems like the NBA would want to force its teams to send players to the NBDL. Isn't that why it was created in the first place?

That may be related to the quirk in the system that allows him to be counted as a Croatian national. Similar to foreigners that get drafted but don't come over right away.

This is how it is in all sports. The team that drafts a guy retains his right, typically, for 1 year (until the next draft).

no. I thought he was a junior.
He was. He's been in college for 4 or 5 years though, has graduated, and has probably only a minimal chance of improving his stock by coming back.
