I bet he was laying on the floor in practice while everybody else was fighting to the death on rebounds and drives to the basket. Watson was probably taking a nap on the bleachers.

Well, they're basically pros now. They better get used to it. I'm not on X so I have no idea what was happening, but I can imagine.
And I don't think it's OK to go after pros either.
That's a whole other level of arrested development but par for the course.
I would almost guarantee that most of the people giving players crap on social media don't donate a damn thing.
those morons on twitter need to stop. trashing on a player isn't going to help and it actually just makes it worse.
Jackson was a decent role player. He had a little bit of foul issues, but I'm not sure he ever fouled out of any games. He only played about 18 minutes a game. I wonder if this was due to conditioning or if he was a liability on defense at times. For as big as he was, I thought he would be able to finish around the basket better. From a coaching standpoint, I think they needed to make sure he was in a better position before feeding him in the post. Too many times he was backing his guy down way too far from the hoop and it bogged down the offense. I put that more on the coaching/offense than him.

Ummm, no offense. But he's not worth a mil. IMO. Fine player, but not worth 1/20 of a universities NIL budget.
There will be a lot of universities that will have their $20M plus whatever bloated NIL budget they had before. You are likely to see some schools who spend half that $20M amount on BB alone. Is that MIami donor who bought a BB team last year just going to give up and go home now that the university is going to have $20M to split between FB, MBB and all of the other sports? I highly doubt that.
I would if I had bought this year's basketball team for Miami. Woof.
Agree. Not saying he is as good today, but he reminds me of Royce White. If he takes even a small leap in the off season, he will take over some games.
While I agree, that’s not going to happen. IMO players should avoid SM like the plague.
I know I would. And if you’re going to be on social media you’ve gotta have thick skin. People are insane nowadays and everyone should understand that and not take things personally
Not worth a mil to us for sure, we have to prioritize other players on the roster and in the portal. But their value is whatever the market will bear. And some school out there will pay him that much.
The difference between unpaid student athletes and professional league is stark, but these are the market valuations. They aren't gonna come back down.
What are you implying with this kind of statement?
Why somewhere else?
What is this based on?
It’s possibly more the one year free agency of every player than the money.
In a few months if the Celtics win it all again they won’t have to scramble to resign every single player on the roster.
This is nothing like college basketball used to be, but it’s also nothing like pro sports.
