At this point, only two Kentucky Wildcats basketball players have declared for the 2018 NBA Draft and will be hiring an agent: Kevin Knox and Shai-Gilgeous Alexander.
Kentucky fans always have mixed emotions when players leave the program. There is a celebration of their contributions, excitement about their futures, and also some disappointment that they did not return.
Regardless, these players will be “Kentucky guys” for the rest of their careers. As all before them have done, Knox and SGA have planned autograph tours to say goodbye to the fans all around the state.
