A college basketball coach once taught me a valuable lesson after I expressed confusion about an underclassmen who entered the NBA draft before he was ready.
Every college player, I was told, thinks he belongs in the NBA.
I bring it up because Sunday marked a quiet milestone on the path toward a 2020 NBA draft that will be unlike any of its previous editions.
This one could wind up being especially tough on underclassmen who decide to give up what is left of their college eligibility to gamble on a crapshoot of a coronavirus-altered evaluation process.
