Kentucky Basketball: Wildcats Most Likely to Make All-SEC Team

Kentucky is expected yet again to be one of the best teams in the country next season. With that comes an obvious expectation to dominate the SEC and place a handful of players on the All-SEC team.

Despite going undefeated in the regular season, there were only two Kentucky players on the 2014-15 All-SEC first team. That honor went to Willie Cauley-Stein and Karl-Anthony Towns, while Arkansas' Bobby Portis was named the SEC Player of the Year.

A key reason for Kentucky's lack of recognition was due to the platoon system: Players simply could not pile up stats like stars of other teams did.
