Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball coach John Calipari doesn't seem to be a fan of the NBA's new G League path, which players have as an alternative to college basketball.

"My issue with the G League trying to entice players by giving them more money is not the kids that you're getting," Calipari said Monday on his Coffee with Cal web show (h/t Jon Hale of the Louisville Courier Journal). "It's the thousands of ninth and 10th graders that think that's how they're going to make it when you and I know it's going to be 2 percent. We're not talking 50. It will be thousands and thousands and thousands."
