[QUOTE="Calvin, post: 1420222, member: 4069"] By the way, did some reading about the Gator-league. An agent said it's unlikely that a h.s. kid would take that kind of offer, since they can get that much already, get greater exposure in college (which helps with endorsements), and most importantly, don't have to go up against players who are more physically developed and fighting for a roster spot. Avg age of a G league player is 25, and a lottery pick player has much to lose even if the risk of injury is only slightly higher. [/QUOTE]
