NBA to eliminate one and done rule

[NoLayupRule]

they should adjust rookie contracts as well

there are just gonna be more and more raw HS recruits now so teams are gonna sink years into their development and be faced with a player about to be worth something when his contract is up

also there are gonna be a lot of players drafted on pure conjecture without the college game as a measuring stick

in truth this might make the late lottery and post lottery picks much more valuable


and superstar college athletic programs worthless

[Jonathan starks]

AAU gonna to be even bigger

Is it exciting to fans to see a highschoolers get drafted then put in G League for 3 yrs then sign with another two or 3 teams before he develops?

It would be interesting if the NBA counted playing in college as years of experience and paid guys more who went to school. If a HS rookie picked mid draft gets 1 mil, a college sr at that same pick should get 1.5

I honestly dont like it. A lot of kids are going to opt out of going to college now. It was better in the past because only 1 or 2 kids here and there would enter...but now with the NBA all about player development and what not, we are going to see a lot more kids being drafted and the NCAA going to take a hit. I enjoy watching these top prospects play college ball.

Welcome to the Knicks board. Salivating over fringe prospects is its own season over here.

What difference does it make if they play in the G-league or some college I never attended?

It makes the NCAA less entertaining for those that like to watch college basketball.

the young talent that comes in takes so many years to develop, the quality of the game gets tarnished... that being said, yep lebron will play with his son now wow lol

Why is the NBA obligated to make the NCAA more enjoyable for you?

Didn't make it to what?

I've seen stats like this that dispel the idea that high schoolers are more likely to bust. I just have no idea what this one means.

actully I think it would fix both the nba and the NCAA if nba teams could draft a guy and then send him to college. It wouldn’t count on the cap but he would still get paid. He could develop and the team could decide if he stayed or came out. Better than the g league

[kane2021]

How about a mandatory g league stint? I’m not watching high school basketball to look at draft prospects. It just doesn’t sit right with me. They’re children.

3 years in the league I believe. This is just comparing the players from HS, and these particular schools for years before “one and done” was instituted.

I like that idea, but it doesn't make practical sense to me. In foreign leagues they do something similar with putting guys on loan no? however, it basically kills the facade of student athlete, it creates a disparity for the genders, also will put too many hands in the kitchen perhaps. If Lakers take Ball and want him at UCLA and want him to work on his scoring but UCLA needs him to pass the ball around to win, then there are competing odds. If the NBA wants Ayton shooting 3's, but Arizona needs him to be a behemoth inside, then who wins?

Part of the appeal he’s doing away with the fallacy of the student athlete

There’s already so much money and so much disparity in so much gender bias going on in college sports that destroying the whole system is the best thing that can happen to it.

As far as the practicality of how a player plays, I think that would just fall on the coach of the college team. There’s influence I’m sure between the NBA and the G league coaching styles but if you opt to leave your player in college then you’re on the risks and rewards that come with that. He gets trained by these great coaches but also runs the risk of learning style that isn’t yours and an injury.

I feel like years ago teams used to draft players that would then come into the NBA years later. I think we drafted bill Bradley before he came to the NBA by several years

Well said. This opens up a whole new level of player development and more importantly SCOUTING. It becomes a bit like baseball, where you are going to have to rely more on scouting (high schoolers) and less on "proven" products (college to a point).

This is actually really exciting for me and probably most fans. Look at how the NBA draft is such a fun time of the year. Now imagine following young guys even more and watching them progress. And now the G league, or whatever it becomes, is like a mini NBA in and of itself.

We have to get these picks right though. And boy is 2021 going to be an exciting year. And also consider, because of the influx of high school talent that year, the year(s) before, is going to see players NOT wait an extra year as the following drafts will be flooded with talent. Really, we need to put everything we have into getting this right.

Players who peaked in HS incoming. I don't know about you, but high schoolers coming directly in the league always made me nervous. LBJ set the bar too high in my opinion. These young men should go to college and get some experience against better competition, and then see where they're at. The NBA is not a developmental league <---I don't know how many times I must say this

Trevon Duval formerly of Duke is a recent prime example of this. Elite HS player who was lucky enough to get accepted by Duke. Came in and had a lackluster year. He then added his name to the draft and went undrafted. Now he's fighting for a job in the Vegas Summer League against other players who won't make it to the NBA.

Thus the developmental league

I say if they're getting rid of one and done, they should make it so that if you go to college, you have to stay for 2 years before declaring for the draft

Makes zero sense. No blue chip HS player would go to college then. They already weren't happy with one and done. Now they're going to sign up for a mandatory 2 and done?

College should be for HS guys who aren't talented or skilled enough to get drafted.

Rookie contracts should be expanded to 5~6 years with team options after 3
