Busts will always be a thing, there’s no way around it
NBA teams prefer younger prospects because they feel they have more untapped potential. There’s the stigma that a 3-4 year college player has less room for growth and closer to being a finished product. If Dalton Knecht was 19 he might’ve gone #1. But since he’s 23 he falls to 17
I think people use KG, Kobe, KD, Lebron, Derrick Rose, etc... all once in a generation players... as the rule when it comes to HS or 1 and done players, when it's more of an outlier. 9/10 a player that young is extremely lacking in BB IQ and not used to playing team ball because they were the solar system in their HS. It's a learning curve alot of players never overcome
