Five Wildcats featured in new ESPN 2024 NBA Mock Draft

Could we see John Calipari’s first five-man draft class at Kentucky since six players heard their names called in 2015? ESPN is predicting it ahead of the 2023-24 college basketball season, with the Wildcats having five selections overall, three in the first round and two in the top 10.

The top-ranked Wildcat? Five-star freshman Justin Edwards, who sits at No. 5 overall in the updated mock draft, projected to the San Antonio Spurs. That comes after he was previously listed as the No. 1 overall prospect by CBS Sports and The Athletic in recent weeks.
