NBA First Round Picks

[RayIsTheGOAT]

From the Worldwide Leader-

"When it comes to 1st-round draft picks, Kentucky reigns supreme. Most picks since 2000:
UK - 17
UNC - 16
Duke - 15
Kansas - 15
Uconn - 13"

The 5 blue-bloods.

From my further research, here are the number of McDonald's All-Americans for each of those 5 schools since 2000-

UK- 25
UNC- 30
Duke- 33
Kansas- 17
UConn- 6

I know this might be repetitive, but only SIX McDonald's All Americans yet we are right next to the high profile/high recruiting schools in terms of producing NBA talent and winning national championships. Truly remarkable.

I was going to say something like your math sucks, but this is a much better response.

What's more remarkable is this undeniable success with not only players but also titles to show for it... yet... we still have some self-proclaimed experts around here who are really just jackwagons that say UConn is not a factor in the NBA and that our program is in trouble. Imagine these people being fans of other schools?
