Daimion Collins sent all of Rupp Arena into a frenzy on Friday night with one emphatic slam dunk.
The 6-foot-9 freshman forward is like a blank canvas that the Kentucky coaches are just begging to paint. Collins famously never lifted weights before arriving in Lexington and played against high schoolers mostly half-a-foot shorter than him. He is incredibly raw but possesses the freak athleticism that has him viewed as a first-round pick this summer.
That alien-like ability to out-jump anybody was put on full display a few days ago. Against Robert Morris, Collins played his best game to date through his still-very young Wildcat career.
