Adam Silver on lowering NBA Draft age minimum: ‘It’s on the table’
Posted Jun 26, 2017
NBA commissioner Adam Silver was again questioned about the potential of the NBA changing the age limit to declare for the draft. “If you’d asked me that a year ago, I would have said ‘if I didn’t have to negotiate this with the union, I would have raised the age minimum to 20 from 19,'” Silver told Dan Patrick. When pressed, Silver said, “It’s a possible option. It’s on the table."
