The NBA draft combine is one of the most exciting events of the basketball season, and it teaches us a lot about the next generation of players.
One of the lessons we can learn from the event is whether or not someone will stay in this class and become professional, or if they want to return for another year of college basketball.
Last season, for example, Kansas wing Ochai Agbaji tested the NBA draft waters before he opted to return to college. He went on to win the national championship.
When players like Agbaji are testing the waters of the NBA draft while maintaining the eligibility to return to school, they receive feedback from scouts and executives as they make their decision about turning pro.
