He struggled greatly at St Johns and then was a marginal player in the pros. If he had been drafted, it basically would've been a waste of a draft pick, and a high one at that
Consequently, Felipe Lopez could possibly be in a much better situation financially, had he indeed entered the draft. While that doesn't mean a great deal to me, it's one of the arguments that people use when saying an age limit is unfair.
