Former Kentucky big man Nick Richards is somebody.
For starters, he was All-SEC First Team and All-SEC Defense during his breakout junior year in Lexington in 2019-20, and if not for Immanuel Quickley, he may have taken the SEC Player of the Year award that season. Junior Nick Richards™ averaged 14 points and eight rebounds; won two SEC Player of the Week awards; had six games with 20 points or more, including a 27-pointer; and led the Southeastern Conference in field goal percentage while ranking fourth nationally.
For all of those reasons and more, there was a campaign for his All-American candidacy.
