Joey Wentz. Nolan Jones. Max Kranick.
Most Cavalier fans won’t remember those names. They’ll go down in the history books with Devin Mesoraco and Justin Nicolino.
All players who committed to UVa, but signed a pro contract out of high school.
Wentz, Jones, and Kranick could have come in and been reliable starters for the Cavaliers in 2017 and maybe even given them the depth needed for a deep NCAA Tournament run. We’ll never know.
This season, Coach O’Connor and staff hopes the draft will be more kind than it was last year.
