If he's projected 1st round, I think he goes.
As we know, a lot of teams draft on potential. He improved tons between his frosh and soph year, so a team that envisions the same type of progression might jump on him in the 1st round.
I think Reggie Miller said during an NCAA telecast words to this effect: "I hate to say it like this (put it this way), but Bentil is NBA-ready."
I sort of agree/disagree.
He needs more seasoning, more consistency, but the NBA and NCAA have changed the NBA Chicago Pre-Draft Camp rules/dates to give players like Bentil a more honest assessment of their legitimate 1st Round selection chances.
One more year and he'd be on a trajectory developmentally that
perhaps Marvin Barnes was on between his sophomore and junior seasons -- less the rebounding.
