Abstract

The National Basketball Association recently announced that beginning next year, a group of select players will be able to bypass college and enter the NBA’s developmental league (the “G League”). This program has been created in response to years of litigation and debate over the “one-and-done” rule that has been in place in college basketball since 2005, the last year that high school athletes were eligible for the NBA draft.

Keywords: G-League, NBA, professional, amateur, one and done rule
