SinkingQuffa Intervention Needed

It wouldn't be the "athlete" part of them, I hope.

Particularly for guys not even 30 years old yet — as they "look back" on their careers.

Demin > Frank Jackson, Jabari Parker, etc. Our best recruit in so long.

Jabari was the #2 overall pick in his NBA draft. His pro career disappointed,

Better than Frank, not better than Jabari though(as a recruit)

If Frank hadn't been in such a hurry to grow up, he could've had a hades of a college career. Demin has a chance of

in the NIL era, he probably would have played in college for longer

No, top 2 100% NBA draft, lottery almost all NBA draft, most in round 1

ok. I guess I'd have to look at contract details year by year of the round 2

Jabara went 19 & 9 at Duke. I think we would all be pretty stoked about that

Good point, especially on the rebounds. I just think long-term Demin may develop

Demin without Jabari’s injuries goes farther, but so does Jabari without injury

Jabari was very talented, no doubt. Wish he'd have had much more of a mean streak to him.

Probably why such a good athlete wasn't a more mobile guy.

He’d probably rather have the 7 million he made in the nba

Assuming his path were the only (let alone best) way to achieving the same funds...

He made 3.8 million in the 3 years he could’ve been playing college ball still

I think that's wishful thinking at best. And like I said, a wasted career. What athlete turns to $$$ earnings

I think a lot of athletes consider money success

Frank Jackson has 214 career games played in the NBA. That is, he was a key

Good thoughts. I'm a fan of the college game. I wish he'd made more of his mark there.

Is Frank still in the NBA or G-league?

Sounds like he’s gone international. Last played 1 game for Jazz in 22-23
