Not signing with an agent, though

@EvanDaniels

Marquette wing Brendan Bailey is declaring for the NBA Draft but won't sign with an agent and intends to keep his eligibility, per a source.

Smart move. No hurt in getting feedback and seeing where he is at. Wouldn’t be at all surprised if he stays in the draft. He seems like a 100% Stan guy so not sure if he will stick around for another year. Hope so as he has a lot of potential.

Lots to work on for Brendan.

I would be surprised. He hasn't shown anything (outside of his stature) that would make an NBA GM think about drafting him.

The only thing that could motivate him to leave is age, since he is already almost 23

He couldn't even sniff a last spot on the Warriors bench this year

Good decision to get feedback and learn about what he needs to do to improve his game. Confident he'll be back and I do wish more Marquette players would take advantage of this. Though I'm not sure how much benefit it will be this year. Seems like it will be harder to get the real beneficial feedback.

Well, hope he makes the right decision and returns.

When is the cutoff to take your name out of the draft?

MUfan12 · « **Reply #8 on:** April 20, 2020, 01:22:21 PM »

It'll go something like this-

Slow laterally. Slow with the ball. Poor handle. Inconsistent shooter. 3 years too old and 25 lbs too slight.

I think that's all changing because if the NBA does proceed with its season, they'll push back the draft date.

He started for the Warriors most of last year.

Brew is right. More MU players should put their name in the draft solely to get back feedback. I always thought Bailey would only play here 3 years. Will likely want to earn a paycheck at 24. And while I don't think it will be in the NBA, he will certainly get some attention overseas.

within the next week, don’t know the specific date though

Are you kidding me?

Brendan is a good guy, but, for real?

He has about as much chance of making an NBA roster (rounded) as I do.

That said, I think Brendan sees the writing on the wall. Step your game up or sit your backside on the bench. He was heavily over-recruited this year.

GM feedback: "Ask Juan what he did and do that"

I might as well too, since my pickup game is on hold. Need somethin' to do.

+1. Given Juan's experience, I don't understand why anyone would criticize or make fun of BB here.

We should all declare. Mathematically, one Scooper would certainly get selected.

That’s because we have Ners who’s a lottery lock whenever he wants to enter the Draft.

With this logic of getting feedback, Shouldn’t Koby, Theo, Symir, Cain, Elliot etc all declare as well?

Bailey is really the only one with a chance given his size.

This discussion always comes up this time of year and the answer is no. If guys like that all start “declaring” they will just change the rule back to what it was. Then players who would have used the process more legitimately will be stuck saying, “This is why we can’t have nice things.”

Perhaps the only one with a legit chance at the NBA. But why wouldn't the others want to declare for the NBA draft to get feedback on improving their game, and use that to get better for a likely overseas career?
