[QUOTE="Hopingfor500, post: 1535669, member: 746590"] Think what you're saying. The "seem to like him", yet still have him in the second round. GMs aren't stupid. They have the same questions as the ones that have been brought up on this board. He's got a couple of glaring holes in his game. That's no secret. This is a two way gamble. Will some team feel that are enough physical traits there to take a flyer early or will all GMs feel that he'll be there at pick 50 or above...or if he goes undrafted, try to sign him as an invitee to their training camp? The question for Ayo....is it more of a gamble to venture into a roll of the dice situation and at worst case end up getting paid in the G- League or overseas OR take the route of going back to school to better his draft position....which may or may not happen? There's no downside in coming back outside of the potential of injury. The upside is being on a potential final four team, but no pay. The upside of declaring is getting a team to take a flyer and snag him higher than anticipated in the draft, where he'll make over 1M dollars over the life of the first contract. The downside is not getting drafted and end up in a league, that isn't the NBA, making a minimum. He's not wrong with either decision, which is a good thing. [/QUOTE]
