The NBA draft is united at this weekend, and the draft is next month. However, before I dive which type of player Los Angeles should be reminded, I must remind you of the three important economic transfers.
The first one started in 1994 when Glenn “Big Dog” asked Robinson in Milwaukee Bucks for a $ 100-million contract after the team was chosen. Robinson eventually signed a 10-year, $ 68-million contract (the richest for a rookie), but next year the league humbles open contracts for rookies. Now rookie deals four years max.
Next, in 2006, the NBA changes the qualification rules that require players at least 19 or a year taken from high school before entering the draft. This is due to high school features that have been pro duds.
And finally, in July 2021, the name “name, the NCAA, policy appearance” That means that any senior draft this year can monetize their full-time college players.
We all affect the question of the question: What kind of player should chase the Lakers in the next draft of the month?
The class has access to excess of a college campus for four years and proves that they can handle tempts to carry money and fame. The class with opportunities to make emotional or child’s or child-media posts may be of a post and knows from them. The type of player who does not get a true senior year of high school but made the best from the cards they care. Being strong is not something that can be measured in mixing, which is not iron because without it, all measured qualities are unable.
League Economy Moves a “long ceiling” – means a lot of potential, but not a proven track record – the most searched quality of the NBA draft. As a result, players who can legally drink do not favor scouts.
Imagine, Michael Jordan was drafted in 1984 at 21. At the time he was a relative young: the average age of draft 22.3. Before changing revision, Kobe Bryant was drafted in 17, and the average age was absorbed by 22. At 2003, is usually 21.5. Last year is the average of 20.
How did it affect a college game? In 2012, Kentucky won the NCAA title with a roster of 19.7 years old. In 2021, Baylor University won the players averaged 22.3 of the age.
While Lakers Roster is the desperate need for a big person – something that is targeted at the first year of playoff loss in the year – they may not find the next Shaq in their No. 55 pick. But they can find the changes to the next Austin, which is not moved as a 23-year-old senior in 2021.
That is not to say that youth is bad things. Only in the development of technology and nutrition, “Youth” has expanded well for professional athletes. The players in their late 20s are likely to be in their major years of creating, no family. And LeBron James and Alex Overeckin are not just the 40-year-old examples of the world – examples of the world aimed. The Olympic Skier Lindsey Vonn is no longer in retirement in the last fall and 40 placed second in an event in March. The essential way for an athlete when the Jordan is drafted is not currently available.
My hope is the Lakers who flashed across the NCAA spectrum and drafted a 24-year-old college graduate with a bank money and a good head on his shoulder. Critical critics complain that the new system makes it difficult to build a good college program because players often chase money and no team loyal. I say it is better to know lessons that can come from that while on a college campus than the higher stakes in the world’s pro sports.
Back to day, talented but college college raws feel forced to earn money and enter early league. Sometimes their expectations can be drafted based on the potential, before they have enough records that they will be judged by their actions. Today, during cash cash and transition colleges, a 19-year-old promise can make a case of going to be a player, a student and a businessman who never stops his dream.
There is no doubt that the Lakers need a big person.
If they continue to choose, it should be made sure to draft an adult as well.
