What percentage of high school basketball players go straight to the NBA without going to college first?
Answer Zero, high school players are no longer allowed to go straight to the NBA. A rule was established following the 2006 NBA draft that all players entering the draft must be at least one year removed from graduating from high school, meaning they have to go to college for at least one year before being drafted into the NBA.
