The One-and-Done era has a new critic, and he’s one of the greatest to ever do it. After witnessing the Darryn Peterson situation unfold, where the top recruit's availability at Kansas has sparked massive debate…Carmelo Anthony isn't biting his tongue. The 10-time All-Star and Syracuse legend, who won a National Championship in his lone college season, believes the gap between elite high schoolers and the pros has officially vanished. “This is why I say, just let these motherf*ckers come out of HS. Save a lot of headaches, lot of coaches in colleges headaches. Now I can start building back my program because I’m not getting these one and done guys. Let these guys come out of high school. The league ain’t getting older, it’s getting younger… Now it’s not a clear cut between the freshmen in college and the 1st and sometimes 2nd or 3rd year player in the NBA. It’s not that big of a gap no more. They already getting the bread, already getting the recourses so now they get the experience of being a pro before even being a pro. So let’s save the headaches.” Is it time for the NBA to bring back the prep-to-pro pipeline?
