Hoopsworld.com takes a look at the NBA Draft stock of Kentucky’s Terrence Jones and Enes Kanter today.
Here are their thoughts:

[B]Terrence Jones (Kentucky) – 6’8, 244 lbs. Forward[/B]
It’s been a tough last two games for Terrance Jones’ Kentucky Wildcats as they have lost on the road to Ole Miss and Florida. Jones has continued to play extremely well, though, leaving no reason to move him down our board. He’s a top 10 talent in terms of his potential and his production still justifies keeping him that high. There is a lot of room for Jones to grow; he’s still far from peaking. In order for him to move up even higher on our board he has to start taking command late in games and make the right plays, even if it isn’t necessarily taking a shot himself. Kentucky’s last two losses have been by a combined four points – if Jones takes over like he’s capable of late they win both and he’s in the top five.
[B]Enes Kanter (International) – 6’10, 250 lbs. Forward/Center[/B]
This is our first mock draft since the official ruling came out from the NCAA that Enes Kanter is permanently ineligible. Because of that he’s no longer classified as a Kentucky Wildcat, although UK head coach John Calipari considers him a lifetime member of the family. While NBA scouts and GMs would have liked a chance to evaluate Kanter in the NCAA, they’ve seen him enough to know that he’s ready to play at the next level. The NCAA’s ruling guarantees that he’ll be in the draft and that is more important to them at this point anyway.
