If there was any lingering doubt about Kentucky’s talent level heading into the season, one NBA scout just erased it.

'Two of everything'

“I expect them to be one of the best teams in the country,” the scout told KSR’s Jack Pilgrim. “They have as much depth as any team we’ll see this season. I call them Noah’s Ark because they have two of everything.”

Nine Wildcats are reportedly on that scout’s draft radar, that means nearly the entire 2 deep is being looked at by NBA teams. That’s staggering depth, and it tells the story of a roster built not just for the SEC, but for March too.
