If Egor stays it will not be financial related. The guy generally appears to

Love BYU. He has been at Russian basketball camps and Real Madrid his whole life. Now he has a girlfriend, goes to the Hansens for dinner, has some good friends. For an 18 year old kid he finally has a community that he has never experienced before. Kid was in tears last night. That’s me reading into it. I honestly think that is the only reason he stays. If you are looking at it from a basketball or financial reason, he should leave.

What if his draft stock tanks? What if he comes back

Yep, the whole "his stock could improve but couldn't drop much" makes no sense.

You don’t stay if you’re a lottery pick. There are risks in each decision.

Not true. If he is a top 5 pick. Better suited for a successful first contract

I'm open to discussion, give me your reasoning instead of a GIF

I think if he came back and shot the same percentage from 3 it would be absolutely devastating to his draft stock

If his current traits with minimal development would make him a top-15 pick next

I don't think its that binary from one year to the next.

I'm sorry, but saying an 18-year-old's stock won't drop much if he doesn't
