Three major basketball organizations have come together on a proposal they believe will fix a glaring issue with so-called "one-and-done players" in the men's college game.

According to ESPN, the NBA, NCAA and National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) collaborated on a policy to push back college basketball players' deadline to withdraw from the NBA Draft by about a month.

Currently, college basketball players must make that decision in late April and the proposal would change that to late May. The three organizations hope this will give players who want to leave college early for the draft a chance to find out where they are projected to be taken.

"You do hear horror stories - someone who thought they were going to go in the first round and they don't get drafted," Georgetown head men's basketball coach John Thompson III told USA Today Sports. "Or second round, and they don't get drafted. We just want to get the kids as much accurate information as we can."

Under current rules, if a player's team goes deep in the NCAA Tournament, their season is ending significantly sooner than many of their peers. Some players end up with little more than a week to consider whether or not they are ready for the NBA Draft.

Now such players will be able to participate in an NBA Combine in addition to getting some extra time to consider their choice.

"This may be one of the best things the NABC has ever done," Kentucky head men's basketball coach John Calipari told ESPN. "This is the first time the NABC understood that they represent the players."

Calipari has benefitted in past seasons from attracting highly touted, NBA-ready young basketball prospects who are only looking to play one year in college before heading to the draft. But like many coaches, Calipari has maintained he always put a high priority on his players' best interest.
