He'd be stupid to stay...and he won't.

He'd be stupid to stay...and he won't.

Why? He'll still be a lottery pick the next couple seasons regardless. To think he won't enjoy a solid NBA career on the court and in bank statements because he stayed in school until he was 20-21 is silly.

Would be lame since we're not gonna be this bad again in the near future. At this point I think we're a lock for a top 5 pick, but if you remove Jabari, that's one fewer "sure thing".

I guess he'd be the number one for sure in 2015? But I don't know how important that is to him.

[AlaskaHawks]

I selfishly hope he doesn't stay. I think his body is NBA ready now. He can polish his game up once he's making the big money in LA.

and once the season is close to the end he won't be pondering.

Doesnt he want to get rich NOW? dumb choice to stay

[Havlicekstealsit]

Maybe money isn't that big of a deal for him...imagine that. Let's stop acting like rookie first rounders get $20M a season right off the bat.

I'm not. I actually think its been a dream for him to play in the NBA, he wants to play against the best and the kicker is that he gets paid for playing.

Risk blowing out your knee or something like that is not worth it so you can hang out and be the best player in college fpr another year. You go when you can go. This is everything he's been working for so why delay it?

Wait, so now staying in school is a "risk?" How'd that turn out for Derrick Rose going pro early? Or Nerlens Noel? Jabari is now apparently a dumb toolbag for wanting to stay in school for a little bit longer - regardless if a top 5 pick and a guaranteed contract await him no matter how long he stays at Duke.

Good for him. It's not often now days that the top players stay in school

What if he gets injured? By by money. No one wants damaged goods

Fear? Sometimes fear of success is worse than fear of failure

Wonderfully, he is financially set for life. Had he been broken down like this in college; he never would be Chicago's number one guy. No endorsement deals, no jersey sales. He would be Derrick Rose the college grad trying to figure out if he should go to Grad school or Law school in a down economy
