A source close to Daryl Macon has told me that he expects Macon to return, based on their conversations with Macon and NBA scouts


Just posted this. Maybe Macon is having some fun with us for an epic comeback?

The fact that they are staying away from agents says a lot. Hopefully they are using their heads and getting some feedback on what scouts think about them. If so it's a smart move on their part. I think both will be back and be better because of it.

With the rule changes in regards to entering the draft, every player who has a chance to be invited should do this. You get to work out in front of scouts, get a grade and eval and be able to make an informed decision based on actual people in the know.

There really is no down side to doing this.

I've always thought in most cases leaving early is bad in the long run, , but I sure would be tempted to leave if I was a millennial with an opportunity for around 100k in Europe.

NCAA's deadline is 10 days after the combine, which will be over May 14. So they have until May 24.

Neither player even got invited to the combine.

Everyone says Barford is coming back and it's a lock.

Most say Macon is gone, including sources close to him.

He won't even make a D League squad at the moment. Players like him are a dime a dozen unfortunately.

Hmmmm! Well, does this mean anything?

Mason has a really good track record, but that goes against what every other source out there says so I'll stick to assuming he is gone and hope to be surprised.

The majority of the team was at the HOGSPY Awards Friday night including Barford...Macon was not.

Is Macon that good or is there other motivation to go pro?
