I Think Bam Adebayo will return to UK

[TBCat]

Good for Bam, or good for you?

Good for Bam. I don't make a dime either way.

 

[JerseyCat84]

He gone

 

[tapemaster8]

Got a feeling. You heard it here first.

Lol!

Weaker draft next year, even if he didn't make significant improvements to his game (he would), he'd likely rise up the draft board by default.

Thought everyone pretty much understood that, honestly. Try to keep up.

I bet he's glad you're not his agent, or his advisor.

 

[UKCATSFREAK]

Bam Adebayo will be a 2nd round pick if he does not leave.

 

[Supafuzz75]

Are players allowed to go to the Combine more than once?If they are it would be foolish not to go very year

Pretty sure 3 years is the limit and be able to come back..

 

[USMC Cat]

He won't, but he should.

The difference between pick #5 and pick #15 is several million over a four year contract.

Plus your second contract could be larger.

its amazing how many people just believe this will happen.

He's gone. He will not last 20 picks. He's a talent that if you are a GM you say crazy crap to make people think you aren't taking him and then, BAM!!!, you take Bam. He's still got a ton of developing left. He's only started to tap in to his potential.

 

[Primedfor9]

lol....fans always say this and are always wrong.

I don't see why people think he couldn't raise his stock, Swanigan certainly raised his by coming back. It's not like he played exceptionally well all season, if he came back and averaged 15 and 10 he would get drafted higher in what will probably be a weaker draft next season.

 

[Big Cat fan]

If he's smart he'll return. Win here again be the leader and then get drafted next year top 5-15 pick.

I don't see him any better then a very late first rounder and with Bam's talent you return.

typical fan bluster which is ultimately irrelevant. winning has zero to do with being drafted.

draft express had swanigan going 25th in last years draft.
this year he has him going 29th.

this is after being a finalist for player of the year.

How bout his sniper 4' range? His mechanical, low-post offensive moves make Dakari look like Akeem.

Bam should come back, but it wont fit Cal's narrative. Sad, really.

Bam and Bamba Bam Bam Bamba Bam Bam.

and this is what fans do.....they dig on the player to convince them self the player should come back. and if he does....they change their tune and talk about how awesome the player is.

cal's narrative is why the kids are here, not fans narrative.

This pretty much nails it. I can't see him coming back or lasting that long in the draft. His best days are ahead of him.

Nope. Monk and Fox offer immediate help to an NBA team. They need to go.

Other UK dudes who left as projects (at best) could've benefitted FINANCIALLY from staying and honing their craft...

irrelevant and not required.

"could've" is the key word in there.

no better place to work on your game than the NBA/d-league. its not debatable.

the reasons you have for having a player to return are not very strong. they just arent.

 

[Bigblueforever]

He gone live with it.

 

[caneintally]

he declared but didnt sign with an agent but he gone. Hello Bamba.
