Bailey was going to go to Philadelphia for dinner with the team’s front office, then participate in private training. It is common for the NBA to postpone the prospects of doing so, just like any other league, in order to acclimatize to their potential team.
But Bailey would have decreased the invitations of many NBA teams, who are all in the top-10 of the dashboard, which makes him the only American perspective not to meet a single team outside the NBA draft.

Thus, the same thing can be done with Bailey, who collected on average 17.6 points, 7.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 33 minutes per match for the Scarlet Knights during a dull year compared to the place where many thought they were pre-season.
The Bailey camp would also have told the teams that they believe that dynamic guard is a selection of first three in this project, although they want to make sure that it goes to a team that will make it play immediately.
The only Duke Cooper Flagg, which should be the first global selection by Dallas Mavericks, and his Rutgers teammate, Dylan Harper, who is the consensus that San Antonio Spurs chooses at No. 2, is above Bailey in most mocking plans and prospects.

A team could steal the dashboard to get Bailey if he felt that he can have an immediate impact.
But Bailey creates a lot of mysteries and speculation by not meeting teams less than a week before the NBA recovery start to Barclays Center on June 25.
