Message: [QUOTE="auror, post: 3060464, member: 1329"] 1) Some EuroLeague teams have limits on number of foreigners on rosters. Likely won't waste them on an 18 year old kid when you can sign a 26 year old guy who is ready to contribute now. 2) Euroleague teams know they only have them for 1 year. There's little reason to invest. So only the true elite prospects even make sense, likely the guys who would have been NBA one-and-doners. 3) One-and-done type guys are pretty secure in their future earnings and generally aren't upset to live like kings in college and bypass 1 year of moderate earning potential in exchange for increased endorsement exposure and playing in unique experience of March Madness. 4) They get paid under the table anyways in college. Enough to support a family for a year. [/QUOTE]
