Agree - like baseball, hockey and European sports

I think that is a bad thing for the NBA. Particularly small market teams that have to rely on drafting high

Agreed. These elite HS haven’t proven they can play at the highest level yet. If

Well, yes. That's why the NBA came up with the whole 1-and-done to begin with.

This only lowers the draft age. Kids can still go to one year of school and then

But it won't be forced. The kids going to college first will be the ones doing

Good in some cases, but Zion’s year at Duke was one of the most exciting

Just do the MLB rule. Draft out of high school, or wait 3 years to re-enter.
