I say no way, go get ready to be the first pick in NBA draft.
Fellow Tiger fans, only 6 to 7 games left in #25 career at LSU.

No.
I don't think any NBA scouts would fault him if he didn't play in the NIT.
But LSU is making the NCAA Tournament.

Agreed. Why risk injury.

Have you watched him play a game this year? Dude is way too competitive to sit out

His parents will step in. Of course he is competetive but he is also not stupid

We know Ben always listens to daddy

Hope he's in the gym shooting

He'd still go #1 but he'd get annihilated in the media for that until the day he retired, rightfully so.

No because we'll be in the NCAA tournament

You're insane if you don't think that would get brought up every time he failed in the NBA.

You're insane if you think when he's 30 anyone will care about what happened over a decade before in college.
He'll have plenty of successes/failures in the NBA for them to reference at that point.

I hope for his sake he wouldn't play. It would be tough to even watch

sorry but there is something fundamentally wrong with having one year players. i'm not blaming the kid at all but the system is fricked.
i'm done with it. hope y'all enjoy it. I would just as soon drop the sport and pick up women's steeplechase.

I have to agree...it really is one of the things that keeps me from developing a strong interest in basketball....

I agree with you, but that's the system. If other schools can compete in it, then so should LSU be able to.

No he won't because LSU is gonna win the goddamn SEC tournament and make the tourney anyways. And if they don't win the SEC tourney they will still make the tournament.

Unless you're Chris Paul.

I know the nit would be incredibly disappointing but I'd be pretty upset if he didn't. He'd be basically quitting on his team and showing that he really couldn't care less about lsu. I think he would play.
