I’m not sure you evaluate the decision based entirely on result either. In terms of the NBA, there are lots of places along the way where that dream can end. Maybe staying at Penn and leading the nation in scoring extends the dream, but it probably just ends at a different spot on the path. Just because the dream ends, that doesn’t mean you made the wrong choice pursuing the dream. He made a decision that was at least in part premised on doing what he could to pursue the NBA dream. He doesn’t have to actually reach the NBA to justify the choice.
That all is assuming that he continues to come off the bench and be a secondary option at St John’s. You never know how things might develop — he still could make this look very different in a couple of months.
