Million Dollar Basketball Babies

The title of the article I read is Million Dollar basketball Babies, written by Tom Hauck. The author claims that young aspiring professional basketball players are considering playing overseas rather than attending college once they graduate high school. I think that these players should complete at least one year of COLLEGE before heading off to the NBA. Sonny Vaccaro, an executive at Nike, Adidas, and Reebok who helped make the recruiting and marketing of young players a big business in the past three decades, says "Qualified players, should be able to earn a good salary playing basketball when they want to, not when the NCAA or NBA decides they can. Our thoughts obviously differ.
