For a kid that wants to get to the NBA and has the skills that make it possible, what is better for you, playing an extra year with inferior coaches and facilities or moving to the college level where everything is better?
For a college looking at a high talented kid, what is better getting him familiar with your system and in your training program, or sitting another year in high school?
There just has to be an understanding that Fr year is going to be a learning process.
So it's hit-or-miss with even the elite of the elite. Got it. I'd much prefer Morez's freshman season to be a substantial one instead of a learning-on-the-job one, and there's a much higher chance of success if he stays in the '24 class. JMHO.Some examples:
Marvin Bagley III
Andrew Wiggins
Jamal Murray
RJ Barrett
Ashton Hagans
Joey Baker
Nico Mannion
Francis Okoro
Works well for some kids, not so much for others.
