If he doesn’t get drafted they’ve gotta figure out a loophole to bring him back. It’s not right for a guy to go undrafted and not be able to return to school.


THIS. And it should apply to football too. I played baseball and got drafted twice. First time, the bonus money wan't worth the value of the scholarship. The 2nd time, I was out of eligibility and a semester away from my degree. Back then there was a January draft in addition to the June draft. I played with guys that were drafted 5-6 times before they signed and guys that were drafted out of HS or early in their college careers but never ended up playing professionally. But at least they had options and could continue their educations until they felt the time was right to sign. Forcing a kid to renounce his eligibilty to apply for the draft is bullshite.

Before the year I looked at a mock draft that had Naz at 4. Now he’s being selected behind Nicolas Claxton from UGA. Really wish he hadn’t gone :(


Lol at preseason polls.

So why should any player go to college if theres no benefit?


Because you can’t play professional basketball in America until one year removed from high school. This may be changing soon if the G league decides to start taking high school players.
