There are way too many college dropouts playing playground ball

this year because they went before they were ready. Not worth the risk

No surprise. I'd be shocked if he were considering the NBA draft this year.

Why

He would not go 1st round and might not even get a roster spot. It's too risky.

CopperLix

But why would his situation be any different next year?

Shteve

It may or may not be better, but until he has guaranteed NBA money, he should

His degree should be the last thing on his considerations list for the NBA.

Play another year, have a better season, raise your draft stock

Sorta like I'm leaning towards not hooking up with Jessica Alba.

Is not so much NBA ready, as it is about where he'll go in the draft

If Mika were told he would be a 1st round pick, it would be a very easy decision

HighHorse

If he was guaranteed a 2nd round pick he may be gone as well. If it's that he

I wonder how often nba teams give promises to 2nd round guys.

I agree with everything you said. It makes the decision that much harder.

jreid191

Agree. but what they will do is say, "if you don't get drafted, contact us immediately and we'll sign you."

That definitely happens a lot. IMO It is better to go un drafted

thebruce

If Mika chooses to return, all starters return, surprise add of Seljaas and likely others, serious hype will follow.

"Coaches have to raise their game to the level of the players."---That's by greatest fear

HighHorse

This past season should be a cautionary tale against the "serious hype"

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN!!!

And hopefully they can find some defense in the off-season.

I think Mika will stay one more year to improve his draft stock

pappabear246

You mean Mika will stay one more year so he can GET some draft stock. . .

He might be a second round pic at this point, I dont know.

pappabear246

3/21/17 12:51pm

I can tell you with 100% certainty that at least 1 nba team as of a week ago

thebruce

What improvements do you think he'll make

Shteve

3/21/17 10:32am

He needs to develop an outside shot.

mitchwhite221

3/21/17 11:01am

Yes, which he could do before June.

Shteve

3/21/17 11:12am

I think at this point he had to show it consistently in games, not in only pro day workouts.

Adrielle

Leaving now wouldn't be a good choice.
