When John Calipari signed his contract to coach the Kentucky Wildcats back in 2009, he had a dream to one day be the former coach of the greatest players in the NBA. It was a bold idea to have the greatest players all over the league coming from Kentucky.
Fast-forward seven years to 2016. The 2016-17 NBA season has just kicked off, and Coach Cal’s dream is alive and well. As the season starts, we’re seeing former Wildcats burst onto the scene.
You need to look no further than perhaps Kentucky’s best player ever, Anthony Davis, to see how Kentucky pros are doing.
