4 Wildcats reportedly invited to NBA Draft Combine

With the 2019 NBA draft approaching, four Kentucky Wildcats from this past season have received invitations to this year’s NBA Draft Combine.

According to the Lexington Herald-Leader, Keldon Johnson, PJ Washington, EJ Montgomery and Tyler Herro will stand alongside the country’s finest prospects who are eligible for the draft.

The Herald-Leader adds that Washington, Johnson and Herro will skip the five-on-five games, but Montgomery will take part in them.

Specifically, Washington’s decision to go pro was purely a no-brainer. After a sub-par freshman season, the power forward made a somewhat-shocking decision to return to Kentucky for a second stint under head coach John Calipari.
