I have witnessed this first hand with hockey parents. For all intent and purpose the kids are finished. They will never see the NBA and they just lost their college eligibility. In other words, they will be decent players at 4th street park in the village and if they live that long play Thursday nights at the Y with the rest of the ancient wanna be NBA’ers.
I never understood the ridiculous names. It’s like they are in competition to see who can pull the stupidist name out of their ass.
