‘The New Wave’ = A New Game
It’s important to remember that you can’t simply assume that what worked last year will work now or in the future.
Overseas basketball is in a state of constant change. In the past, going professional was seen as something post-college. Now, things are very different. With new deals like NIL, you can earn money while still at college, which means many players are choosing to stay and develop their skills for longer.
It was also recently announced that Juco players will no longer lose their NCAA eligibility. This extra time in the NCAA could essentially breed more experience for those wanting to take their game to the pro ranks.
All new opportunities and challenges from these developments, for example, means that you now need to consider these (and more) aspects when planning your career.
That’s where Ball91 comes in for you. Ball91 is the trusted agency with a strong reputation for integrity, experience, and top-class service. We are well equipped to help you navigate these ever-changing market forces and decide the best time to make your move, whether at the HS / College / Pro levels.
And believe us, there’s such thoughts to be had at every level of basketball played. Developments that influence the game and then will shape the strategy and approaches that you should adopt include:
- League rules changing – what may seem like a relatively small change, may well end up impacting, positively or negatively, the opportunity’s availability.
- Timing of seasons – some play the conventional ‘fall’ times whereas some player in the summer, both are good, for different reasons
- The commercial side of the game – should probably have been written first, but as a league/club changes ownership, the expectations will too and therefore so should the consideration of that opportunity, looking at things from a business perspective.
No matter what path you choose, Ball91 is here to support you every step of the way, ensuring you make the right decisions for your today, tomorrow and future in basketball!
