Even if you are not practicing or playing, you are getting better resources..watching the plays and learning things.

Which schools?



Embiid was definitely helped by being in the NBA as opposed to college, apparently his nutrition and sleeping habits were horrific. If he stayed 1-2 more years at Kansas with that broken foot and hit the league he would probably be out the league within 2 years. Kansas wasn't gonna get him a personal chef to control what he eats.

I really wouldn't use this as a reason.:ld:

Dwight Howard ate like shyt for years though, and its been same for other pros as well; The Sixers apparently have gone way above and beyond when it comes NBA teams regarding nutrition/food and getting on the players about it; and they only recently jumped the wave.


Overall, being in the nba should help a player who wants to play in the nba more:heh:

In general option 1 is better.

Context is important though, I think a lot of players who aren't the very elite are just choosing the wrong schools. You see it a lot with the fringe one and done 5* guys who end up choosing Kentucky and transferring after their freshman year.

Those types would be better suited to just go play for Villanova or Michigan right from the start. Schools with top tier coaches who aren't worried about the next recruiting class.

I guess what I'm trying to say is the kids that aren't locks to make the league are choosing the wrong schools.
