So he couldn't stay and play and get NIL and work on his shot. If he did work on his shot and say got drafted top 10 he would have doubled his money per year on the rookie scale. Plus now he behind the eight ball trying to get a second contact which would make you alot of money another year at Indiana would made him alot more money down the road instead he took the quick money and his career in the NBA could be over soon.

wtf would he do that? He pretty much got a lottery ticket. You don’t cash in a jackpot ticket for a better chance at a bigger lottery. You think him staying and getting injured wouldn’t have hurt his draft stock?(which likely would’ve happened) remember he missed games from his back issue. He sat out last year for his back procedure. He easily made the right move.

What you describe would have been great... if it actually would've happened. I guess you're banking on how many guys have developed their shooting under CMW? How much has his shooting improved in the NBA without the distractions of class, college social life, etc..., and with greater resources and time?

And a 7 figure payday. No way a fool doesn’t go after that season.

If anyone hasn’t heard by now, plays for the Utah Jazz as of the bs trade between the Mavs and Lakers.

Basically Luka for AD. NBA allows all the star players to get traded to the Lakers for practically nothing. Other teams could have offered way more for Luka! Doesn’t help that Cuban is no longer in charge and the new owner formerly worked for LaL.
I guess the Mavs will roll with 3 starting Cs now and LA will have no C! Im sure the NBA will gift LA another superstar for a washing machine! I hope Luka stays out of shape and fails until Leebro retires! NBA sucks, glad I dont watch it!
With all that said, I hope JHS finds a success place in Utah!

Luka is one hell of an offensive player, but has little to no interest in playing defense. And he is almost always out of shape. He isn’t someone I’d want leading my team, even with all his offensive abilities. They should have been able to get more for him, but I don’t blame them for getting rid of him before he’s due a max contract in the 350MM range.
