Stay or Go

During the best decade, the NBA has seen a trend of having player coming straight out of high school and entering the professional ranks. While some of these players succeed, plenty of them fail. The league then imposed that the player must be at least 1 year removed after high school. This resulted in top freshman basketball players in college leaving after their first year. Many schools are at a high turnover rate due to these players making the jump to the NBA. The latest person who is in this trend is Kyrie Irving from Duke. He is projected to be the top pick in next years draft. This past week he declared that he will be leaving Duke and entering the draft. The strange thing about this situation is that Irving has only played in 5 games total in his collegiate career due to injury and he is still favored by many NBA scouts. In my opinion, he should stay. What y'all think?
