And seems both have been around for 20 years

We can’t talk…Race was here forever and Galloway and Leal will be collecting social security next year.

but just like Bacot has no NBA future he stayed to make that NIL $$ I can see Edey do the same next year.

Until he he sees he won’t get drafted and how much money he will pass up. It’s a business decision to leave…and will be a business decision to stay. Nothing will change draft wise by staying another year. He will just miss out on a pay day if he goes.

He is gone and both Edey and Painter has said so

Believe it when I see it. Easy to say until you have the money sitting there in front of you.

Painter was pretty adamant that he won't be back when he was asked about it. I doubt he would have oversigned this class if he felt Edey coming back was even a remote possibility.

Won’t get drafted? Would be surprised if he’s not a first round pick. Maybe early second round at the latest but am guessing he gets a guaranteed contract.

“Embid and Joker are super skilled, so they can play out on the floor," a Western Conference executive said. "The 'Edey type' of center is almost obsolete in the NBA today."

“Analytically, what Edey is doing in college is off the charts," an Eastern Conference scout said. "But does that transfer? Right now, Jokic gets seven post-ups a game. Embiid gets five. That's where Edey would be the most effective. But teams don't post up anymore because it hurts spacing."

"His toughest adjustment will be the speed of the game," the Western Conference executive said. "His best defense is drop coverage. And you can't play drop vs. guards like Steph Curry, Damian Lillard, De'Aaron Fox and Jalen Brunson."

The scouting director agreed. "Playing soft drop zone in the NBA, if they don't kill him with the floater, they'll kill him with the short mid-range pull-up," he said.

Hmmm… where have we seen that before?
