For the past years we heard how corrupt the NCAA is as far as not paying student athletes. From blurring out the names on the back of the jerseys in ncaa games, to the ncaa video game series coming to a complete end. Due to the fact college players aren’t getting no benefits off the game as most can we blame them. The NCAA is using these players to promote a game which they will make millions while the athletes not make anything off their likeness.
The main thing for NCAA basketball is the G-League. Which lately has been making moves bringing in top prospects such as Jalen Green and Jonathan Kuminga. A Lot of people wonder what the future of college basketball is. Will more players make this a trend in upcoming years. Jalen Green will be making a good $500,000 as he enters into the g league. Getting to promote his brand early out the gate. While if he would have taken the college route he would have waited another year or two to start his own brand.
Moving forward you can expect high school kids to start branding themselves earlier, than in recent years. A Lot of that will start to be signs as they are pursuing the G league. It’s going to be a long ride these upcoming years as we see how everything is going to pan out these next years. Expect a lot of changes within college basketball as well as more states will start paying its players.
We can expect a lot from college basketball overtime as high school kids choose the G league over college. Main thing people need to realize is that ncaa is a business; these changes that are coming are going to be overtime. Don’t expect the ncaa to start picking up new changes from a few prospects. This is going to take a good next 5–6 years for the ncaa to realize more colleges need to start paying their players. Especially the ones who are the reason fans buy. tickets to see them.
