Message: [QUOTE="Brochacho, post: 3911138, member: 705"] No, he's ready. He has all the talent in the world and what he does with it at the next level is up to him. Bouk is a late lottery pick right now, worst case, first round pick. It would be absurdly stupid for him to return to college - the NBA would mark him as damaged goods. Average number of upperclassmen taken in the top 14/lottery the past 3 decades: 1990s: 10.6 2000s: 5.8 2010s: 2.6 There have been 10 upperclassmen selected in the lottery in the draft since our last championship. The NBA has clearly shifted away from prioritizing upperclass prospects. Bouk will get better training, coaching, meal prep, mentorship - everything - at the NBA level. It would be a 6 figure mistake for Bouk. Now is the time for him to move on. [/QUOTE]
