What would Jai alai be like if top athletes played the game ?

I believe very few amateurs play worldwide, the game is expensive to play and the rewards for being the best in the world are like mail carrier money.

How about if you 6'8" guys that can move ( NBA players) learning jai alai instead of basketball, or baseball pitchers that can throw 95 mph instead learning pelots, or all those fast poor Dominican kids playing pelota instead of baseball with pop bottle gloves, tapped up balls and no shoes ?

If this game made big money to players, the players you'd have gotten into it would blow away great worshiped 70's guys from Bpt.

A control MLB pitcher should be able to dominate the front, maybe a Michael Jordan playing back court ?
