According to the NCAA here are the stats:

Men's Basketball

  • Less than one in 35, or approximately 3.1 percent of high school senior boys playing interscholastic basketball will go on to play men's basketball at a NCAA member institution.
  • About one in 75, or approximately 1.2 percent of NCAA male senior basketball players will get drafted by a National Basketball Association (NBA) team.
  • Three in 10,000, or approximately 0.03 percent of high school senior boys playing interscholastic basketball will eventually be drafted by an NBA team.

These numbers relate to high school seniors, so if you estimate that seniors are 40% of the average high school team, then the percentage of players on the team to make it to the next lower are even lower:

High school to College

  • 3.1% of Seniors
  • 1.1% of Varsity Players

College to pros 1.2%

High school to Ppros

  • 0.038% of Seniors
  • 0.015% of Varsity Players

At least 98 to 99 percent of professional football players have played football in college. It is very rare that high school students get drafted when they are that young. Also, most franchises like to watch a few certain players in college so they learn more about the game and so they have more practice!

way less than football because football teams have more players on one team. Basketball has usually 9 to 15 players compared to 53 players on a football team.
