The Big Lead released its annual preseason ranking of the 50 best players in college basketball, and two Kentucky Wildcats made the list. In fact, they’re both in the top 10.

Up first (counting down), The Big Lead ranked Kevin Knox as the eighth best player entering the 2017-18 season:

8. Kevin Knox, Freshman F, Kentucky: A 6-foot-9, 205 pound wing who can play shooting guard, but likely will play all over for the Wildcats.

In case you missed it, Sports Illustrated named Knox one of its top incoming freshmen, earlier this week.
