Scholarship table
This really sucks for him.Having said that, I'm kind of relieved that he's moved on and we weren't counting on him this season. Imagine how we would all feel if he came back to school for another year and we were expecting big things from JLew, then getting this news today.
Devastating. Justin is a good kid and had a bright future.
Still has one. This isnt 1975. Peoppe.fully recover from ACL injuries now.
Sad to hear about this. Hoping for a full recovery.Here was what I could find on the interwebs about guys who get hurt while on two-way contracts. It's from 2017, so I don't know if it's been updated at all.The player can rehab with their NBA club and it’s medical staff, and as long as they don’t participate in team activities (film study, practice, etc.) then these days do not count towards their 45-day maximum.Teams have some flexibility here. Depending on how long the player will be out, the team may choose to count their days toward the 45-day max, so that player reaches the maximum earning potential of their deal. If the player is out only a partial part of the season, then they may opt to save those 45 days for when the player is healthy and can contribute to the NBA club in some capacity. There is a ton of gray here.
Thanks for providing that. I was curious how that would be handled. Based on that, at least he will have access to great doctors and hopefully will be able to hit the ground running next year with the Bulls.
His only issue is that it is probably a whole year for recovery and the Bulls will have the 2023 draft for additional players he would be fighting with for a spot, like a two way a year from now. Going tp be a tough road ahead, wish him the best in rehab.
I wish him well and am pulling for him but I think the odds are now long he plays in the NBA
Except hes not required by the ACL gods to tear his ACL regardless of what his decision for basketball this year was.
It’s bad info
Or, hear me out, you were Justin and got this news while staying back another year.I will never bash on a kid who is leaving early to make money. If you are talented enough to get any contract in the league, it's too risky to stay another year in college IMO
he rolled the dice. Now Justin has nothing. Pro $? Nope. College scholly? Nope. Borderline 2nd rd pick after sophomore year, come back for one more college season and see if you can elevate your draft status. Now?
Now Justin has nothing. Untrue. Pro $? Nope. Incorrect. College scholly? Nope. Wrong. Borderline 2nd rd pick after sophomore year, come back for one more college season and see if you can elevate your draft status. Now? It's counterproductive to torture oneself with "what-ifs." Justin undoubtedly is already looking ahead.
Justin scholarship is still valid. He can complete his degree if he wants. I know he is probably not that about that right now. It would be a sound use of his time will in rehab.
so, even though he signed with an agent and signed a pro contract, the academic side of the scholarship is still valid?
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
