[B]Nerlens Noel[/B]
When you have a gift and develop it, then utilize it to maximum capability, you can really excel in just about anything. Noel has emerged as the nation’s best shotblocker; not just because he is tall and long but because he has perfected the art of the block. First, he understands to make sure he jumps second and keeps his arms straight up to avoid the foul. For every shot he blocks, he alters or changes twice as many by simply contesting the attempt. He is truly a consistent differencemaker.
[B]Jabari Parker[/B]
The NBA-sized wing always had a very good skill level and basketball IQ. He does it all from an offensive standpoint with exceptional skill and size as a perimeter player. Parker has changed his body and continues to score with great efficiency from different spots on the floor, hardly ever forcing the issue. Overall, he possesses natural instincts for the game with the talent to take over a game.
[B]Julius Randle[/B]
The left-hander is a ferocious driver who can go through or around defenders and score at the rim. He is skilled enough to make jumpers or post up anytime and punish people on the blocks. It is also impressive how he grabs defensive rebounds and pushes it up the floor. He demands a double-team.

I know we haven’t gotten started on the 2012 class, but the 2013 class is already getting the feel to be very special for Kentucky.
