Do NBA executives know the difference between a stud and a dud based on how long the player stays in school?
There is anecdotal data everywhere, from Kobe Bryant to Korleone Young. But former NBA player and current SheridanHoops columnist Danny Schayes works for Intensity Corporation, a firm that did its own exhaustive study on early entry candidates for the NBA draft.
Schayes has written a three-part series explaining the study for SheridanHoops. Part One ran Tuesday and Part Two was published today. Part Three runs Thursday.
