NBA Draft Day Mock Roundup

Tonight, sixty young men will hear their names as they are drafted into the NBA and their dreams will become a reality.

Since becoming the head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats, John Calipari has been the best at getting players to the NBA. In his thirteen seasons, Calipari has helped 43 players to be drafted - 32 of those being first-rounders - which is the best mark in college basketball by a substantial margin (Duke: 31 draft picks).

This year, Kentucky is looking to add to that list with TyTy Washington and Shaedon Sharpe projected to be selected in the first round.
