Brandon Jennings, the Oak Hill Academy (Va.) star who has committed to play at Arizona after he graduates next summer and rated by most experts as the top senior point guard in the country believes he is good enough to make the leap to the NBA upon graduation next summer. The only problem is the age minimum from the collective bargaining agreement which requires players to attend college at least one year.

“I really don’t like it. As you see with Kevin Durant and Greg Oden, they were ready coming out of high school. The one year probably helped them, but still, even without that one year, they would have done their thing.”

“It just takes the fun out of the draft. We (high school stars) used to be like, ‘who is going to be the next high school player who goes No. 1?’”

Arizona fans can thank the NBA for at least 1 year of Jennings in a Wildcat uniform.
