LOS ANGELES - Labels from prima donna to pariah are pushing doubt to the forefront and raising the likelihood teams could pass on Ace Bailey, the Rutgers small forward who had been considered a virtual lock to be selected with one of the top three picks in the 2025 NBA Draft on June 25.
There is also a chance Bailey, under the direction of agent Omar Cooper, already has a guaranteed ticket to the National Basketball Association in the form of a promise from one of the teams with an early selection in the draft.
"I'm just working on basketball, that's all I'm focused on," Bailey said during pre-draft media availability in New York on June 24. "I can only control what I can control, you can think what you think... I'm focused on basketball."
