The Players First Fantasy Experience is taking place this weekend in Lexington, where grown adults gather to live the life of a Kentucky basketball player for the weekend. In short, you show up, get a duffle bag of gear — this year’s package included two jerseys, two shorts, one polo, one sweatshirt, one shooting shirt, a t-shirt, socks and a pair of shoes — and play five-on-five games for three days with the current Wildcats serving as coaches.
After making my Fantasy Experience debut last year, I’m back for my sophomore campaign, this time drafted by Antonio Reeves, Adou Thiero and Grant Darbyshire.
