Kentucky Wildcats featured in ESPN and SB Nation 2019 mock drafts

The 2018 NBA Draft is over, which means we can start looking to what the 2019 class looks like.

For the Kentucky Wildcats, the early projections have PJ Washington and Keldon Johnson firmly in the Round 1 range and could even sneak into the lottery. At ESPN, their 2019 projection has Johnson going No. 13 overall to the Miami Heat. He’s arguably UK’s best incoming recruit, not to mention one of the most polished prospects John Calipari has ever landed in Lexington.

Johnson doesn’t score in bunches or routinely throw down highlight-reel dunks, but he’s very solid in every aspect of his game.
