The NBA Draft deadline is just over 24 hours away and CBS Sports believes the Kentucky Wildcats have the most on the line as players make their choices.
The Wildcats are waiting on stay or go decisions from Oscar Tshiebwe, Antonio Reeves and Chris Livingston.
Here is an excerpt:
1. Kentucky
The biggest question here is whether or not star center Oscar Tshiebwe will return. But the decisions of Antonio Reeves and Chris Livingston loom large as well. Both players would bring experience and proven skills — Reeves as a scorer and Livingston as a defender — to a team that could otherwise be unsettlingly reliant on freshmen.
A decade ago, the No. 1 ranked recruiting class with five top-40 players and four five-star prospects would have been enough to make Kentucky the SEC’s preseason favorite. Nowadays it’s been proven you need some productive veterans to win. If deadline day goes poorly for UK, look for coach John Calipari to take a swing at the handful of quality transfers remaining in the portal.
