Why NBA Players Should Go To College

Why NBA Players Should Go To College

Episode 2

Many NBA players go to college so they could enter the NBA Draft although most of them only go for only a year. But some players like LeBron James and Kobe Bryant who were so good and talented that they didn't go to college. I'm surprised that MJ didn't do it. My input on this is that high school athletes should go to college and play ball there for a couple of seasons if they want to go pro.

First off, there are some cons of trying to draft into the NBA. Number 1 is maturity. High school students lack maturity physically and mentally. They don't know what it takes to play in the NBA. They won't tale it seriously and turn it into a joke. Secondly, there's time. These young athletes need hours of practicing if the want to go pro. However there are rules on how long players can be at the gym. And even though they need to practice more, they still need a god education. Next, there's the second contract. Some high school players may be so god and talented that they could just bypass college an go pro. They wanted to be signed with a team right away. However, those talented athletes aren't really ready for the  because there are still some thing that they aren't prepared for.

Last reason why high school players shouldn't bypass college and be a professional is work ethic. Just because you're the best athlete in the whole school doesn't mean you can just slack off and just go to the draft. There's a lot of fierce competition out there and if you want to play professional ball you have to work really hard and give it all you got an the best way to do that is college because if you play for a couple of years you're most likely to be fully ready for playing in the league.

So to summarize, its better to stay in college to practice more and to work hard so that you would have a good education when you play in the NBA.
