Doesn't matter if they flourish or not. When you're pretty much a guaranteed top 10 pick (Lamb) and a guaranteed top 3 pick (AD), you go. NBA takes chance on ability. And I'm a believer that you can absolute improve yourself at the next level, and while it might take you 3 or 4 years, you can still be an effective player even if you started slow. 
 
What if they come back and struggle even more next year and their stock plummets? What if they have a nagging injury and aren't healthy all year? This risks outweigh the money. 
 
I like Boatright honestly, but he has to get a lot bigger and hasn't shown enough to be close to a 1st round pick yet, it took Kemba 3 years, it'll take Ryan at least that. 
 
Calhoun is not notorious for taking 1-and-done guys, AD was a special case; he was arguably the biggest recruit in the programs history and was from CT. Most of his NBA players  didn't come in very highly established, he made them into that.
