Following Potential 2025 Draftees

No, he should just stay in school as long as he can and collect NIL money.
He will be a second rounder this year or next and likely extends his guaranteed money by a year with going back. May make enough between NIL and his first year or two guaranteed deal to set him up even if he flames out and goes overseas or something.

He's announced he's returning for his senior year.

I know. He would be a second rounder this year or next year. May or may not make it to a second deal. Extended his earning potential imo. Will finish his degree most likely as well. Come out of college with a 1.5M-2M in the bank and sign a deal that gets you at least one guaranteed year and you are setup pretty well even if the big money dries up.
 
Imagine making 10M as a college athlete. How do you move forward? Just put it in the market and be school teacher? Enjoy your summers off and coach?

Start a business with no financial issues if there is a ramp up period. Take a normal job but do so with no financial struggles and a nice living place paid off. Or just straight hang out in youth sports and do camps and such. World is your oyster.
 
I came away feeling the exact opposite. His off the ball movement is elite for his age and will run defenders ragged. Add in his ability to create off the dribble and you have a very rare combo.
I remember feeling for Booker how many here feel for and dismiss Tre. I’m starting to wonder if Tre isn’t a future multi time allstar.

This is both cool and sad at the same time. I will say though we would’ve had a number 1 pick but we sold it, and that was magic

If you're good enough to get top NIL money as a college player you're good enough to play overseas for some amount of time and then transition into working in basketball.
 

The only team in the lottery that has never had the #1 pick is the Jazz. You could argue they have negative #1 picks considering the Magic Johnson fiasco.

The NBA ****ing owes us. Especially with the push-off/5-point swing fiasco. Especially considering the highest they’ve ever drafted is a pick they had to immediately trade (Dominique Wilkins). The Jazz have done everything on hard mode the entire time.

If part of the idea of the lottery to sometimes punish teams that don’t compete and aren’t competent while sometimes rewarding teams that do things the right way, name a franchise in the lottery with a better organizational track record for competence and competing.
