Judah 33rd in BR draft update

[MikeSU02]

Curious how many international players now in that mix that up the figures too

I legitimately think its like 25% or something. It's a significant number.

But at least they were 23 or 24 with a degree vs 20 or 21 and no degree.

True, but professional basketball player isn't a profession that requires a degree.

Assuming that continues to grow too. I mean the top 3 players in the league( or 3 of the top 10 to not get into a debate)... foreign born.

Yep, it's just math considering that there are about 450 NBA roster spots depending on the team and season. And if you except the guys in their thirties (~100 players) who are either very very good or were very very good, and thus likely have good contracts or are the best of the best. The pool is limited to the guys aged 19-29 and ten years of drafts, that equals about 750 players competing for 350 spots every season. And next season they get to do it all over again with a new crop of 60-80 players.

Pretty good at math!

A profession that usually ends by 32.

A profession that usually ends by 32.

And that generally has to start at the latest in one's early 20s.

I'm not gonna sit here and act like I know every detail of Judah mintz's game but from what I saw I mean I think the NBA, he is different than all the other one and dones that we have come out of Syracuse besides waiters, grant, etc. I
He is explosive very extinctive and I think that would make him a hot commodity in the NBA and that's what you have coaches for when regarding his shot orlack thereof but it's the NBA, I am sure that his shot is very fixable.

But again I want to see him back here but I just do not see it because I think that he will take a second round pic and take the. Chances I mean it's hard to turn that s*** down!!! Let's be honest

Point made. In the other Judah thread too.
