Regarding Delgado and whitehead going pro next year, why even talk about that? These kids say that all the time and it rarely happens. Maybe they go the rysheed Jordan route and head to Europe, but neither whitehead nor Delgado are serious threats for the NBA draft next yr (although I could see Delgado making the league eventually). And if things work out this year and the team has a good chemistry and the kids are playing well, it is probably more likely they return to try to increase their draft stock for 2017 where they can realistically look towards the NBA as they would be the foundation of what could be a very good team.
