G League players are now committing to College Programs.

Tommy has fumbled the bag again.

It is time to pay the Pros who left early to come back to College. Zeke Nnaji and Josh Green owe us some service time.

It sounds like the NCAA fumbled.  Lloyd likely didn't have anything to do with the process...and he doesn't need the players that weren't good enough for the NBA, even AFTER working in a developmental league against superior competition. 

G-League players are strictly kids that are holding onto their dream of playing in the league, and won't admit that their career "should" be at an international level (or working at Enterprise).

Aren't you a proponent for development?

Yes. Plenty of freshmen, international talent and grad transfers that can fill the void, without the ego of a player that jumped straight to the pros.

I'm biased because I'm a huge fan of college basketball, so take the above with a grain of salt.
