Brooklyn Nets: Ending one-and-done better for NBA, players

ESPN.com’s Zach Lowe reported Friday that NBA teams — including the Brooklyn Nets — received a memo on Friday indicating that draft-eligibility rules could be changing as soon as 2021.

The NBA raised the age for draft eligibility for 2007 to 19 years of age or that a player’s high-school class had to be one year removed from graduation, a rule that has become known as the “one-and-done” rule.

It got the moniker as prospects headed to college programs for a season before bolting as freshmen for the NBA Draft.

According to Lowe’s report, the memo was sent to help teams plan for future picks.
