They use a formula based on how many followers you have on social media, what level of school you play at, etc.

Most 2nd round picks get guaranteed deals these days.  A two-way basically means playing in the G-League.

I'm curious whether you actually believe that a basketball scholarship's true value is $30,000 a year.

A two way is a pretty good deal. $500K plus. Each team gets to keep two guys on a two way beyond the 15 man roster and nobody else can poach them IIRC.

A typical G League salary is $40K for guys not on any kind of guaranteed contract. Better off in Europe or taking NIL.

I would think Illinois could match $500k for TSJ or Hawkins if they really wanted if they were unsure if they were going to get one of the two way deals.

Both are borderline to get a two way or roster spot IMO unless they really impress in workouts.

Of course a guaranteed rookie minimum roster spot for a second rounder is the ideal.
A reach for either of them, but who knows.

FWIW the rumor on Hunter Dickinson was several million in NIL.
Smart move as I think he is not a long term NBA roster guy in this lifetime.

I read somewhere that about 70% of 2nd round picks get at least one year guaranteed..

A two way deal is going to be worth more than just a g league contract. Period.

In 2014, Indiana quantified the value:

"For an out of state student-athlete, the four year total value of a full athletics scholarship is estimated to be $240,274. For an in-state student-athlete, that estimate is $135,766."

It would vary by institution.

The average for all sports is 18,000 per year. 30,000 is a low estimate for UI in state.

Is that why you’re broke?!

I’m not. I have 80,000 and no debt.  I could literally do nothing for 6 years if I wanted too

What a total fucking idiot. "I could literally do nothing for 6 years if I wanted too".
Cannot spell either.

Let's break that down. The Pedophole Retard claims he can live in his Squeakymobile for 6 years without working on $15,000 a year.
Good luck with that loser.

That will not even cover the candy you hand out on the playground.

80,000/6 is more like 13,000 and some change.

Even a moron like him can get 5% a year on CDs unless he puts it under the bed at the flop house.


He is a fucking idiot.
No health care.
Living in a crack house.
Eating at homeless meal sites and dumpsters.
I bet he is pulling his own teeth out about now.
Driving the Squeakymobile trying to get 11 year olds to go for a ride.

He is living on SSI disability and in a homeless shelter.
Chronic mental health diagnosis and unable to really work except for his Squeakymobile gig.
If he wasn't such an asshole we would have empathy for his situation.

Shannon not invited to the combine. If he had any intention of sticking to his word, truth would probably be pretty nervous.

I hold no delusions about that though.
