This whole process is silly. Nobody, including him, thinks he might be drafted this year, yet he must declare to the NBA he's interested in being drafted to get access to their perspective on the development needs in his game? The NBA really needs to come up with a better way for these athletes to get professional guidance.

The NBA really needs to come up with a better way for these athletes to get professional guidance. is it the NBA or NCAA that's the limiting factor here? Would think an evaluation camp of some sort would make sense but would the NCAA allow it? I really like that we have multiple players who are going this route. If they take the feedback and use it to work on their games, we're going to have some special players next year. |

It’s good that there’s a process, however imperfect, for them to do that. There’s a whole spectrum using the process. Some are far from ready and merely seeking additional info on their game. Others may be touch and go on actually entering the draft. Still others may be delusional thinking they are ready and the process is possibly most valuable to them. |

Just change one thing . . . don't call it "declaring for the draft". Call it anything else. Call it "engaging in a career readiness program".
When some engineering student goes to some Nvidia recruiting event, we don't say he's "declaring for the Nvidia draft". It just makes it sound like something it isn't.

If they take the feedback and use it to work on their games, we're going to have some special players next year. One problem with trying to incorporate the feedback into their game is that it may not be what is needed from the player at the college level for his team and their system. In Calloo’s case, it seems like his NBA role would be a 3 and D guy, which actually would be beneficial for the Beavs if he puts maximum effort into D. I would love to see him rebound more too. But I could see feedback that Alatishe receives about his game not exactly fitting the role that the Beavs need him to play. |
