I'm not so sure. People said Brandon Jennings was stupid, too, but it worked out just fine for him.

Brandon Jennings is 1 guy... There are plenty of guys that were big time high school prospects that go to Europe and just fizzle out for diff reasons.... Not that good and overrated, being alone in a diff country, pressure, etc.

The best part about playing college basketball in the US is the amount of exposure you get and you go up against other future nba players. Not saying the euro leagues suck or whatever, but there are only a few guys playing in all of Europe that make it to the nba.

I guess it depends on your definition of worked out. he absolutely HATED his experience overseas and was miserable.

But he still got drafted top 10.

It's stupid because he's going to make a quick buck when he's going to be rich in a year anyway. He's giving up on banging hot white rich smu broads to hang out in turkey.

it's definitely stupid.
