I think it's time to take Moses Moody serious as a top 5 pick.

How is the double draft looking in terms of the pool of one-and-done and high school players?

Is Scottie Barnes who we thought Ben Simmons was going to be?

Surprise surprise. Coach Cal gives Allen a shot and he drops 23 off the bench (hitting 7 threes) and Kentucky finally gets a win. Cal gotta start playing the players who apparently dominate in practice and stop trying to uphold verbal promises to the most current recruits.

I hope Dontaie is legit moving forward, but I'll need to see him play in games where he doesn't shoot 50% from three with almost all of his shots coming from beyond the arc. I do think winning that game might have turned the corner in a way for UK. There's still a lot of issues with the team however. Definitely would have been blown out if Allen didn't hit 7 threes. Sarr can't have 0 FTA games. BJ Boston needs to generate offense for others if he's going to be so inefficient.

It's going to be a bad year regardless because the blue chips aren't as advertised.

In terms of sophomores, has anyone improved their stock more than Trendon Watford?

Man, this dude looks legit.

I feel like anytime there's a shotcreator with that kind of size, that guy gotta vault up draft boards. Watford gotta go top 10.

Just to continue my annoying hype train for a particular player:

I brought him up before, but I really think Dylan Disu is going to eventually be a first rounder.

I haven't watched much video of Bouknight or seen any games of him. I DVR'd the Uconn/Marquette game but it looks like he only scored 6 points on 3-12 shooting so I'll probably just delete it.

A lot of the indicator stuff with him looks pretty good. How's his handle?

Looks like Kentucky is getting their crap together with some of the bad apples being away from the team.

Dontai Allen continues to shine off their bench. He's basically playing starter's minutes, at this point. Cal needs to just give him the spot.

I can't believe how much size is in this draft.

Cunningham
Barnes
Watford

These guys are all like 6'8" 230+ and scoring the ball off the dribble like Gs.

David Johnson of Louisville is amazing.

Better prospect: Josh Christopher or Jalen Suggs?

I think Christopher might be better. Suggs has cooled quite a bit.

Uh oh, Sharife Cooper has entered the chat.

Love that this guy beat cancer and came back to be a good player again. Awesome moment for him to hit the game winner.

Okay, Franz Wagner might be something.

Ayo leads an attempted comeback that falls just short.

He's a surefire first rounder, right? He looks incredible offensively.

I don't know what happened to Boston's shot, but that's the biggest disappointment of the season. He was advertised as some sniper coming in.

Damn, Trendon Watford might be one of my absolute favorite prospects in this draft. I don't see why he doesn't go top 10, at this point.
