We can always visit him at Wal-Mart, where he'll soon be employed. That guy is not even State's best player, so what makes him think he can play in the NBA?

His agent and the people around him.

That is kinda sad. That kid is not gonna get drafted or if he does he'll never make it in the NBA. His game is still raw, he is foul prone, and he needs more polish period. The influences (agents or whoever) should be ashamed of themselves.

He's not dumb for going pro. Even if he ends up as a benchwarmer, the minimum NBA salary is around $300,000 a year. How many college graduates make that much a year? If he stays another year or two, there's no guarantee he'll become a collegiate superstar. A lot can happen in that time.

Even if he goes undrafted and has to play a year or two in the NBDL or somewhere overseas, he'll still make more money than he would at N.C. State (well, that probably wouldn't be the case if Jimmy V was still there).

If he can't even become a college superstar over the next two year he doesn't belong in the draft then let alone now. Him and Erazem Lorbek are this years Marcus Taylor.
