[QUOTE="Emerson Bigguns, post: 1537554, member: 666858"] There is also no telling how bringing in top prospects will change a lot of what the G-League is, and who is involved. It will get more interest from fans. I don't think there is any doubt whatsoever about that. It will never get to NCAA levels, because we root for specific jerseys more than specific players, but having the best prospects will make it more appealing to broadcasters and advertisers. These things will lead to better exposure for coaches, which will improve the caliber of coach at that level, and more investment from the league in the form of trainers. When you aren't simply keeping 13th men in shape incase of injury, but really developing the next generation of superstars, the math for the league, and their investment changes dramatically on numerous fronts.
