Tyrell Terry will keep his name in the 2020 NBA draft and leave Stanford after his freshman season.

"After talking with those closest to me and careful consideration, I came to the conclusion that taking this next step is something that I'm ready for," Terry said. "I'm confident in my game and ready to compete at the highest level, against the best players in the world, and to learn from the best coaches in the world. I still plan on continuing my education and getting my degree from Stanford. But for now, I'm ready for this challenge."

Terry is the No. 44 prospect in the ESPN 100, though he is ranked No. 8 by The Ringer.

"It was a difficult decision for me considering the circumstances the world is going through right now," Terry said. "No one knows what the future holds with this global pandemic. But seeing how well the NBA has handled everything from the start, and with the bubble going well so far, that gave me confidence in my decision to put my trust in Adam Silver and the NBA leadership."

The NBA is hoping to offer teams a platform to assist in their scouting of the 2020 NBA Draft despite the pandemic called Combine HQ, a source tells The Undefeated.

The platform will feature 105 draft eligible prospects that have been voted on by teams that would include player profiles, states and interviews.

The 2020 NBA Draft is scheduled to take place on Friday, October 16th.

There could be NBA teams who explore selling their first round pick this year in order to raise money with league revenues significantly down for the 20-21 season.

"I suspect first-round picks will be for sale in this draft," one team executive said. "We haven't really seen that in a decade."

The Denver Nuggets were the last team to sell a first round pick as they sold the selection that became Rudy Gobert in 2013 to the Utah Jazz.

The 2020 draft is generally considered to be one of the weaker classes in recent memory.

The NBA has moved the 2020 Draft Lottery up from August 25th to August 20th.

The 2020 Draft remains scheduled for October 16th.

The Golden State Warriors, Cleveland Cavaliers and Minnesota Timberwolves have the best lottery odds at 14 percent apiece.

The Golden State Warriors will prioritize the backup point guard position this offseason, according to sources.

The Warriors lost Andre Iguodala, Shaun Livingston and Quinn Cook last offseason, which effectively eliminated their backup point guards behind Stephen Curry.

Draymond Green will continue to handle the ball and Andrew Wiggins will also initiate the offense.

Anthony Slater of The Athletic mentions Michael Carter-Williams as a potential target. Carter-Williams' game has often been compared to Livington with their length as a ballhandler and lack of perimeter shooting. 

The Warriors could also target backup point guard via the draft with LaMelo Ball, Tyrese Haliburton and Killian Hayes all considered high level point guard prospects. 

Jeremy Sochan has committed to Baylor as part of the 2021 recruiting class.

"I really appreciate how much time the Coaches at Baylor invested in getting to know me and building a relationship with my family," Sochan said. "This helps us understand each other better, and as they've been so successful I hope I can bring even more success to Baylor from 2021!"

Standing 6-foot-8 and 220 pounds with a 7-foot wingspan, Sochan has spent the majority of his life in England but spent last season in Indiana. Sochan was born to an American father and Polish mother in Oklahoma. Sochan will spend his final year of high school in Germany. 

"It's always been my dream to play basketball in college, but it's as important to have a plan for when basketball stops. I want to play professionally and have a long career, and studying at Baylor can help me be successful both on and off the court."

Jonathan Kuminga announced with Shams Charania that he has reclassified to the 2020 high school class and will sign with the NBA G League Select Team.

Kuminga was the No. 1 player in his class.

Kuminga also considered Duke, Kentucky, Auburn and Texas Tech.

Kuminga will be a potential top pick in the 2021 NBA draft class.

Langston Love has committed to Baylor. Love is the no. 22 prospect in the incoming class of 2021.

Love took official visits to Stanford and Texas last fall, but he also had UCLA, Kansas, Arkansas, Villanova, Illinois, Texas Tech, Texas A&M and Oklahoma State on his list.

"The reason I chose Baylor is because it is a Christian school, with high-caliber academics," Love told ESPN. "I also have developed a great relationship with the coaching staff and I'm impressed with the way they develop their guards."

Love played behind the likes of Cade Cunningham (Oklahoma State) and Scottie Barnes (Florida State) at Montverde last season.

Multiple NBA teams believe LaMelo Ball and his camp prefer to end up with the New York Knicks.

"Oh yes," said LaVar Ball last month when asked if the Knicks were considered the ideal landing spot for LaMelo Ball. 

Here was Ball’s explanation: “They don’t have anything. The last time they won a championship was back in the 1970s. The bright lights, you need a whole new turnaround over there. The person I want to see (LaMelo) play with – he can play with anybody. I want to see him play (with), they got to know this – if you getting Melo, you getting Gelo (LiAngelo Ball). That boy shoot the heck out of that ball. Play with chemistry with (LaMelo) better than everybody ever. And after that you have a chance to get ‘Zo (Lonzo Ball). You don’t need one person to change no franchise. You need a whole culture change, and that takes all three of my boys. All three of my boys on the same team? Who ain’t going to watch that show? That would be the biggest show in the NBA ever.”

Max Christie has committed to Michigan State.

Christie is a 6'4 shooting guard ranked No. 12 in the ESPN 100 for 2021.

Michigan State received a commitment from Emoni Bates recently and he could join Christie in 2021 if he reclassifies. 

Duke was initially an early favorite for Christie.
