Trae Young's entry into NBA Draft shows absurdity of 'baseball model' for college hoops
Posted Apr 22, 2018
Trae Young surprised his coaches, NBA scouts and probably himself with his performance as a freshman in college basketball.

It would be ludicrous, though, to require him to remain playing NCAA basketball.
