Pretty interesting fact I found out. I wonder if the NBA will roll back their limitations on High School drafts again.

He graduated high school, and then did a postgraduate year at IMG Academy. So while he was drafted “out of high school” he met the requirement of being 1 year removed from completing high school prior to entering the draft. LeBron would still be the only player drafted “immediately” out of high school.
