In an unlikely turn of events, Marcus Lee has decided to transfer from the University of Kentucky after withdrawing his name from the 2016 NBA Draft. Along with that, Isaiah Briscoe has decided to come back to the Kentucky Wildcats for at least another season. Briscoe comes back as the Wildcats leading scorer.
While I am exuberantly happy that Isaiah Briscoe is coming back for another season, I am flabbergasted with the decision Marcus Lee made, and kind of upset, too.
Sure, the incoming freshmen are a bunch of big guys and Lee would be fighting for time, which is likely unappealing for a senior who wants to show out for his last season and grab the attention of NBA scouts.
