It appears Steele is doing just that. According to this roster from the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament, Steele will be on the court again and making a push for the NBA Draft. Again.

Re: Steele to the NBA?

I wish RS all the luck in the world. Tough couple of years for the young man.

It's going to be very difficult for him to make it with the quickness of NBA guards now being what it is, but I wish him well.

Re: Steele to the NBA?

Yeah, what you said. In retrospect, he'd been better off to go the "one and done" route - when he still had knees...

Tough to see a kid who truly gave it everything he had, character wise, ability wise, effort wise, lose his big dream because of injuries.

And yes, in retrospect and 20-20 hindsight, he should have just taken the chance.

Re: Steele to the NBA?

It's still open to question if his knees would have held up the NBA grind, but he would have been able to bank some $$$ in the meantime...
