Answer

The odds of making it to the NBA depends on your determination. How much hours you practice and how hard you play whether it be the real thing or just practice. kobe ryant once said, "The guy said NBA players are one in a million, ... I said, 'Man, look, I'm going to be that one in a million.'". It's all in you, whether you want it or not, just have fun at the process.
