SBNation has ranked the top rookies for the 2019-20 season and two former Kentucky Wildcats were ranked in the top 19.
PJ Washington and Tyler Herro are actually both ranked in the Top 10.
9. P.J. Washington, F, Charlotte Hornets
Washington made serious strides as an outside shooter during his sophomore season at Kentucky, and that progress carried over to the NBA after the Hornets selected him with the No. 12 overall pick. A long and strong 6’8 forward, Washington took nearly 40 percent of his shots from three-point range and hit them at a 37.
