Million Dollar Basketball Babies, by Stefan Fatsis, challenges the NBA's decision to setup a rule against players coming in strait out of high school, due to the fact that those who are skilled mentally and physically have the option of playing professional basketball in Europe. It then reveals the possibilities for player who may desire to go into the professional realm strait out of high school. The text finally justifies the option of going to Europe to play professional basketball out of high school by not only defending the idea, but pointing out that multiple companies, are looking to sponsor/sign a plethora of new talent.
Questions:
1) Do you think high school players should be able to go to the European league despite the NBA laws? Why or why not?
2)Why is do you think the NBA has chosen to reject players strait out of high school despite the high level of which many play with at the moment?
