Description:

Earlier this month, the top high school basketball prospect in the 2020 recruiting class, Jalen Green, decided he would skip college and sign with a new program operated by the NBA's G League. The new initiative is the NBA's first academy-style operation within the league, and the goal is to keep homegrown talent in the U.S. rather than seeing them play overseas in places like Australia, China or Greece. Today, The Athletic’s Sam Vecenie joins us to talk about the NBA’s surprising investment, what makes this new program different, and how it could force the NCAA’s hand.
