Chriss is a stud. First rounder for sure . Not sure about Murray though
Murray is really good too. Probably should stay another year but he has alot of potential

Next Russell Westbrook.
Dunn is a good athlete but is a 1/10th the athlete Westbrook is.

Dunn will do well in the NBA because of his size, but he aint Westbrook, which is not a slight to him, Westbrook is a freak athlete and one of the best players in the league

I know. Russell is in the pantheon of players that a college kid should not be compared to. But I can see similarities.

Most teams don't have a Grayson Allen to breakout though. Plus they brought in a top 5 freshman, and coach K is the best cbb coach currently. It applies to most teams.

Dunn is leaving early like Kemba left early. He's graduating. And really, he's too good to be a grad transfer. Nothing more to do in college.
How sweet would it be if he DID want to be a fifth year transfer and correct his mistake of not attending UCONN to begin with?

Damn straight!
Unless your name is God. Shamgod that is.

He was a grad assistant with Provy last year so God really didn't help them much.

He has been/will be a point guard

For whatever reason, whenever people want to poo-poo a guy's chances at succeeding at the next level, they pretend he played a different position than he played.

Yeah like just because a player has to score more than usual does not mean he isn't a point guard. Don't think anyone is mistaking Kemba with a shooting guard.

Some Jeremy Lin fans out there think Kemba is a SG...or should be. But they are insane.

Lin fans are the worst, they are literally crawling over any major hornets forum /Twitter whining about how Jeremy "slays Giants" and could start on any team.

Clearly only a few (Ulis, Murray, Skal) will be seriously considered but the whole UK roster is now entered to the Draft

Can't believe how good Bentil turned out to be. He was fun to watch this season and I kind of hope he comes back next year for you guys.

Some of the UConn stories...

Class of 2008. We went after Brandon Jennings, and he chose Arizona before going overseas for professional basketball. Our consolation prize: Kemba Walker.

Class of 2010. We went hard after 3 of the top 10 players in the class looking for a point guard: Josh Selby, Brandon Knight and Cory Joseph. All three passed and we ended up with Shabazz Napier instead.

Class of 2011. Went for Jabarie Hinds and he ended up committing to West Virginia a couple days after Ryan Boatright committed to Huggins. Boatright decommits and ends up a Husky #thankyoujabarie

If calipari sets up a workout @ uk with 20+ NBA front office personnel... Hate to say it but I'll have to tip my hat to him. If KO and other coaches don't set up combines they are falling behind badly
