Must mean Primo is seriously considering leaving. That’s my only guess. So they’re reaching out to make sure they have someone to fill the last scholarship in case he does.



Unless Primo completely blindsided them about his draft intentions, they'd have just kept Wilson on board.

2nd round picks can get up to 2 years guarranteed contracts (about $800,000 minimum) or one year or some combination; can also get 2 way contracts with G league. Most 2nd round players have signed with teams with one of the above options. This is good money for someone 20-22 years old. I have no idea what Primo may do, but missing the 1st round does not leave players stranded with nothing if they get a 2nd round pick. After 2nd round, things are iffy, though many of our former players have made good livings abroad - like Dudley for 14 years in Turkey. Richard Hendrix is still playing - in Japan. Retin doing great in, I think, Italy. Saw video of Levi winning a game in New Zealand.
