I'm not sure where jfsolo23 is getting 70 players from, but it seems like it is probably close to reality.
Just referencing the 2021 draft, this big board of prospects includes 62 college underclassmen who declared early. It was updated at the time of the draft, so it doesn't include any players who went back to college. A pretty high number of guys declare early and ultimately go undrafted, either signing with a g-league team or starting a career overseas.
