Banchero - 1st College Player Ever Included in NBA2K

I'm sorry but this is gross. And I think this just about does it for my college basketball and Duke fandom. This kid has not earned anything at all yet but he's going to just be handed millions for this endorsement. Hell, we don't even know for sure he'll ever play a minute in the NBA.

The difference between college and the NBA was always the competitive spirit, that's gone and now these kids will exclusively go to the highest bidder. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

One thing I’m sure of, is that Paolo will be a top three pic. He’s a clear example that’s some kids should be able to go to the league straight out of high school. Who ever drafts him he will start for them .
kid is a work horse with a high basketball IQ and all the things needed to make it in the league.
to me it’s another way to keep the top high school talent that the league won’t let go straight to the NBA stay in college and away from the gleague.

Shatter, it's still our Duke. It's just that the rules are changing and Duke is keeping up with it if not being at the forefront. I don't like it, but I love me some Duke basketball.

Game has changed. Roll with it or get left behind. It’ll never be the “good ole days again,” I’m glad we’ve got a program that was prepared for this, bc if we are being honest, the ones on the gridiron…well, just be happy we’ve got this.
