UPDATE
As it turns out, Robert Dillingham was actually a silent commitment for the Kentucky Wildcats before picking NC State, according to On3’s Joe Tipton.
It sounds like Dillingham and his camp weren’t enamored with potentially playing in a backcourt that could include 2023 No. 1 overall recruit DJ Wagner, as well as 5-star guard Reed Sheppard.
Dillingham even silently committed to Kentucky, a source told On3.
So why didn’t Dillingham end up picking UK?
Well, it depends on who you ask.
