It's an established fact that NBA GMs put one-and-done in the rules to "protect themselves" from having to draft young players. That's not me making something up. That's just reality.
As basketball has the smallest roster and the shortest draft, I would hope it'd have a higher success rate than the larger rosters and longer drafts. However, as "success" varies per expectation per pick etc, I'm sure one could fit data from various drafts endlessly to fit whatever argument they desire.
>It's probably more than coincendental that 'what's best for >the kids' also mysteriously aligns with Coach K's interests.
Duke loses ten NBA draft picks since 2010 if one-and-done was no longer around, including the three key pieces to his 2015 title, so... no, OAD benefits Coach K considerably.
