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.

Name one of them. Jennings is the only top-flight example that I can recall. Sure, there are going to be some lesser players that do, but he is the only example of a top-10 talent making the jump.
