Kentucky hasn’t even started its 2018 preseason slate in the Bahamas yet, but we’ve already got mocks of the 2019 NBA Draft incoming.
Bleacher Report’s Jonathan Wasserman has released a first-round mock that features three Wildcats, including one in the lottery.
That one Wildcat in the lottery is freshman wing Keldon Johnson, who Wasserman has going eighth overall.
Keldon Johnson should step right in for Hamidou Diallo at Kentucky. Another great athlete with an obvious NBA physical profile (6’6”, 211 lbs), he’s going to turn heads with bouncy plays above the rim.
