How long does it take for a high school player to be considered for an NBA draft?

I've heard that a high school player has to have speant at least one year at college before he is eligible for an NBA draft. Is that true? If it is, could you please tell me where in the rules it says that?|||Thats technically not true. While you can't go straight from high school to NBA anymore, the rules say nothing about college. All it says is that you have to be at least 19 years old and be 1 year removed from high school.





Most people will just go to college, but like last year Brandon Jennings didn't want to go to college, so he signed a 1 year contract with a team in Italy so he could get paid and will enter the draft this year. He's still projected as a lottery pick, but I can't really see how seeing as he's playing against lesser competition in Europe and he's averaging 6.5ppg 2 assits and 2 boards as a point guard, and 60% free throws and 15% 3s. Someone like him would have been better off in college I think.





One other option is to go to the D-League. Granted, NBA D-League is kinda like a minor league, but they allow entry at 18.|||You have to be 19 by the time the season starts to declare for the draft. You don't necessarily have to have spent a year in college.|||rules changed. its one year may be changed to two soon. look on NCAA website for answers.|||You must 1st graduate out of high school now.so its not at a high school age.|||senior or junior








depends on age|||yeah u cant go strait from high school anymore, it is the rule
