    Wow… after watching the video, the message is loud and clear! “stay away from G-league Ignite players.”

    The place where prospects go and sell out their NBA future and player development for a mere couple of 100 thousand dollars.

    G-League Ignite was shut down last year. NIL killed it's intended purpose.

    Amen. I have been so preoccupied soaking it all in, there's no more Jalen Green. It's completely slipped my mind. Thanks for the reminder!

    This video made me sad. Not only did the Ignite fail, but they torpedoed these kids' career by enticing them with $$$ and taught them nothing except bad habits. Of course they would take the money (even if it's "only" 300K) they're kids! They could have learned from legendary coaches in the NCAA, played in front of huge crowds, learned to be a good teammate and playing in high-pressure games, instead of whatever glorified all-star game the G-League is. I really wonder what they could have become had they gone to college.

    G-League Ignite was an aggressive middle finger from Adam Silver to college basketball that imploded in his face. I guess his business acumen isn't perfect after all.

    Jalen sucked in the Gleague it was obvious that he wasn't great, was never a starter even in AAU - he has been inconsistent - and unless he cleans it up, he is Lou Williams like.

    You’re going to be disappointed, those are the type of people who will argue with a lamp post.

    I love Jalen Green news now, the tranquility......

    Here is to him having an MVP like run in mid October or mid March.

    I'm not sure it imploded in his face . It's in silver and the leagues best interest that college in the USA be the top young league . Europe and G-league were gaining a lot of ground before NIL

    Ignite was a good push that colleges needed .

    I’ll wish him luck when he goes to the East. Until then I hope he sucks.

    Had high hopes for Jalen.
    1st pick of the rebuild.
    I was excited to have actual Rockets homegrown picks.
    Especially after all of Hardens bs.
    Just never could quite put all together fully as Rocket.
    I was willing to stomach one more season bc of the trajectory of the team, but for KD you do that everytime.

    It’s such low hanging fruit but I took a look at Jordan Clarkson’s career stats the other day and realized that peak Clarkson is probably a better player than JG. And I anticipate a similar career arc.

    Lou Williams is a great comparison for Jalen.
