NBC Sports believes Kentucky has the best backcourt in college basketball

NBC Sports certainly seems to think so.

Scott Phillips of NBC Sports was tasked with ranking the top 15 backcourts in the nation, and he put the Wildcat trio at the top of the list.

In his ranking, Phillips said Kentucky’s perfect combination of skill and experience sets them apart from the rest.

It’s hard to top a perimeter group that boasts four five-star prospects and multiple McDonald’s All-Americans, but it’s become practically the norm at Kentucky.

Ashton Hagans proved himself capable of running an offense and being a lockdown defender last season.
