Some parents see the sport as a
path to a

to youth lacrosse the travel - team lunacy of soccer and
basketball.

path for players who want
to turn pro out of high school, this could be a positive development for the NBA — which doesn't want
to change the age limit, but does want talent in the G League — and for
college basketball.
