Following potential 2014 draftees

We all know that Phoenix will end up drafting Nick Wiggins. They can't help but drafting the less talented brother of a potential stud.

I know. They did get the better of the Morris twins, but that was only because they both fell to them. If Markieff was drafted before their pick, I'm sure they would've taken Marcus. Heck, they managed to get him on their team anyway.

SO caution: If you are a NCAA basketball player equipped with a scholarship and are going to a carnival playing this game

Please contact the NCAA in case you win a plush toy. It may cost you your scholarship...

He shouldn't get it. The rule's pretty clear.

The NAIA student guide says athletes cannot use their sports ability or fame for financial reward. John Leavens, the executive director of the NAIA Eligibility Center, said rulings on these cases typically take one to two weeks.

If Rodriguez had come into the 20K by some other way, everything would be fine. But because he was plucked to pop a half-court shot in basketball, this is all up for review, and Rodriguez could lose his opportunity to play NAIA hoops, should he opt to keep the money.

I'd say rule is pretty dumb :P But since he only getts a $4k / year scholarship he should prolly keep it and use a part of it to pay his school fees and give a **** on his scholarship(assuming that the $20k are not counting towards taxes. Otherwise he should spend all of it in a way that he doesn't have to pay taxes on it ;)

Rules are rules, bro, dumb or not is irrelevant. Once you signed on the dotted line, you've accepted the terms.
