it’s become a standard for Kentucky to have multiple players projected to be selected in the NBA Draft. Kentucky has produced the most current NBA players (27) and has top-tier talent year after year. This season comes as no difference, with Kentucky having a loaded roster with several talented individuals. A few have been tabbed as potential draft picks with others having plenty of time to increase their draft stock.
In a new mock draft by The Athletic’s Sam Vecenie, freshmen Cason Wallace and Chris Livingston are tabbed as first rounders with Wallace currently projected as a lottery pick.
