The deadline to declare for the NBA Draft has come and gone and Nick Richards isn’t going to test the waters.
So does that mean he’s coming back for a junior year with the Kentucky Wildcats? The only other option would be for him to transfer and I sincerely hope that will not happen. This team is going to need Richards, especially if EJ Montgomery gets affirmation that he will be a first round pick, although I find that to be not very likely to happen.
It would be refreshing to see a UK basketball player stay for more than two years.
