Unfortunately, it is draft season in March for Kentucky basketball. The top prospect is TyTy Washington, and the freshman guard has a big decision to make.
However, the Arizona native is no longer a slam dunk to go off as a lottery pick in the 2022 NBA Draft. On Monday, ESPN’s Jonathan Givony mocked Washington at No. 14 overall to the Charlotte Hornets, but it is clear that NBA personnel decision-makers have questions that need to be answered.
“[TyTy] Washington simply hasn’t been the same player since suffering an ankle injury two months ago in a loss at Auburn, seeing his scoring production and efficiency fall off,” writes Givony.
