One thing people need to think about is the fear that these kids and families have about overseas travel right now. In years past, we have had a lot test their luck on the draft, knowing if they weren't drafted they would just go play overseas for a couple of years. The kids now may have to rethink that. There is also the case of how long the scare stays in tact. If you are sure to be a first round draft pick, then maybe you go ahead, but even second round picks may rethink this as there is a chance you don't play at all next year. Even when things start to come back, the NBA will get it's cash product stable before turning to trying to promote and play G-League games. No play means no Pay for those guys.

Having said all of that, it won't surprise me if they all go, and it wouldn't surprise me if only 2 go. I think Nick and Maxey are the floor, with Quickley next in line, then Hagans, then EJ.

Thats a good point and hard to digest everything as fast as things are changing. It’s a new world for sure.

It won’t happen but this lineup would be the most talented team in the country

IQ
BJ
Clarke
Brooks
EJ

Askew
Juzang
Jackson/Ware
Fletcher
Allen
Askew needs a solid backup at point guard. Who’s it gonna be? I don’t know that we will have one unless Cal brings in a grad transfer. Quickley, if he returns, is not point guard material. He’s a shooter, not a creator and disher. Cal’s offense demands a point guard who is a quick, strong Alpha-personality kid ( and one who can shoot halfway decent).

I can see IQ coming back as he comes from a great christian family and i think he wants that degree. Like most of you i think it would benefit him to come back and play PG and raise his draft.
