Confusion continues to spread across the college basketball world, even more so after news broke earlier this week that a former NBA Draft pick has been cleared to play college basketball this season.
James Nnaji was the 31st overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft and played multiple years in NBA Summer League, but never officially signed a professional contract with an NBA team, which gave the NCAA enough reason to provide him with four full years of college eligibility. The 21-year-old seven-footer signed with Baylor on Tuesday and is expected to make his college debut sometime.
