    Junior Basketball League (JBL) by LaVar Ball. One day. Maybe.

    Darius Bazley is doing this next year after decommitting from Syracuse. Curious to see how this works out for him. Top 10 recruit in the 2018 High School class.

    I think some people wants to experience the college culture, especially being varsity athletes before they go pro

    G League contracts dont carry over when you get drafted into the NBA- so there's not as much incentive for a team to give you PT or development like the ncaa

    Considering that 98% of them will never get any higher than this, and one gives them a college degree and the other doesn't...the choice for the vast majority seems pretty obvious.

    1% of college players get drafted each year so the NCAA will always be the best bet to a future in or out of basketball.
