Baylor brings back 2023 Draft pick

[REB1094]

Here’s a fun hypothetical: the Knicks (own his rights) can call him up or trade him elsewhere and he would have to leave Baylor on the spot.

I would love to see that haha

First they'd have to actually sign him, so he'd essentially have to agree to leave Baylor and sign in the NBA

He's already been involved in an NBA trade. He was part of the big Knicks-Timberwolves trade with KAT. Just strange.

Knicks acquire Karl-Anthony Towns in 3-team trade

All-Star big man Karl-Anthony Towns heads to New York, with Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo joining the Wolves.

I was wondering if Jordan Hawkins can return for the spring semester.

Why stop there? Let's get Sanogo and Newton too. I'd say Castle and Clingan also but the Spurs and Trail Blazers are never giving up those two.

There was a day when high schoolers only competed with regional talent for college scholarships. Nowadays they are fighting 5-6 year seniors, transfers (including graduates), foreign players, redshirted players, NIL (including one and dones), and soon ex-NBAer.

Just saying this thread made me realize why mixtapes exist.

Da Fug let's get the band back together Jackson, Sanogo, and Hawkins. Shoot why not grab Christian Vital and the Wrench to fill out the bench and get them a ring?

I know you are joking but there would be an argument for Sanago if he didn’t play 13 NBA games. He still had eligibility. At least it seems that way.

It’s beginning to jump the shark. Once a team actually wins an NC with one of these these types it’s really going to break the straw.

[Ewekon]

Only a matter of time before an active NBA guy says “f it, college ball sounds fun” and is granted eligibility.

And a few NIL mills

So it seems as though the Knicks will retain his rights if he ever wants to sign in the NBA. No re entering the draft.

I was thinking about it at work yesterday as I was daydreaming out my window while making coffee. What would our starting lineup be today if kids still stayed 4 years like the old days.

Cling, AK, Liam, Braylon, Steph?

 

[How Sway?!]

Funny how these same coaches that bitch and moan about the current state of college basketball turn around and do stuff like this. Almost like they take the high ground until it benefits them

 

[uconnfan68]

He never actually signed an NBA contract, he continued playing overseas. So I imagine that's the loophole they found

Played as a pro or an amateur?

Because he's a 2nd round international, correct.

 

[Horatio]

All these questionable in season pick ups should have to wait to the following season. Everyone is not allowed to recruit these G-League / Euro League, in season kids.

 

[huskyinfl]

So is Daniel Hamilton coming back?

Beginning to?

 

[TheHorde]

I’m old enough to remember when guys declared for the draft they forfeited their roster emailing eligibility if they didn’t remove their name from the draft.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Because he's a 2nd round international, correct.

Sounds to me like we’re very close to players getting drafted, being told not to sign a contract, and directed to go back to college for development. We should probably reach out to all the northeastern NBA teams about potentially becoming the place they send their draft picks to develop.

Cute exchange on reddit. Duke fan says "I can't believe I agree with Dan Hurley." UNC fan says, "I can't believe I agree with a Dukie" Dan Hurley, uniting people during the Holiday Season!

 

[RuffRuff]

Beginning to?

I can deal with all these creative routes, but taking on kids that have gone pro/drafted really jumps the line. Under no circumstances should a kid who was drafted, loophole or not, be eligible to come back.

 

[Class of 09]

I just don’t understand why you would want someone who couldn’t cut it in the nba back on your team. I get there’s a physical advantage but like, Braylon Mullins can go make an impact on nba team right now I could care less Baylor picked up some g league reject.

Ray Allen looks like he could keep up with the youngins too
