jrue holiday: one and done or super soph?

JRUE HOLIDAY, SG, #21, UCLA, FRESH.
SHOULD HE GO PRO?


Jrue Holiday was a top five recruit out of high school last year. He wasn't as impressive in his Freshman year as former bruin Kevin Love was. Yet, he still put his name in the draft. This is not his final decision though. He didn't hire an agent, which means that he could at any point take his name out of the draft. One of the reasons that he might not have done as well as people might have thought is the fact that it was Darren Collison and Josh Shipp's Senior year-- their last year to shine. If Jrue stays in school, he might be able to shine as UCLA's number 1 lead player. If he goes pro, he will be drafted (most likely in the middle of the first round) and will be able to start his pro career early. This would give him more time to build on his career and be a better player in the NBA.

Personally, (as a UCLA fan) I would like him to stay. But the choice is all his.
