The Kentucky Wildcats had an unfortunate setback on Saturday afternoon, but the NBA Draft picture is a promising one for multiple players on the team.
On Tuesday, Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo of ESPN released their latest 2024 NBA top 25 draft prospects, and the Cats have four players getting selected in the first round.
Justin Edwards is the first Cats that appear in the rankings as ESPN has him as the No. 13 overall prospect. Prior to the season, Edwards was viewed as a top-five draft pick and now has fallen almost out of the lottery.
