Cauley-Stein, albeit he isn't nearly as ready as Towns, will declare, as will Towns, who has potential to be the #1 overall pick.

Towns, and Lyles will be the only freshman to declare for the draft, Booker really should come back for one more season, to improve his stock for next season. Ullis? His size hurts him, he could honestly be a 4 year player at Kentucky, and a 3 year starter. Talk about an unbelievable back court with him and Booker.

Sophomore class, Johnson, and the Harrison twins need to stay as long as possible. Johnson especially, with all the promise he had last season, he never took any big leaps forward to improve his game in ever facet. Yeah he toned down, lost some weight, but that didn't help his overall improvement. Harrison twins had their moments in the tourney the last 2 years, other than last night that is. It seems like down the stretch against Wisconsin, they really forced the issue, like we've grown accustomed to seeing. Again, they have had some great moments in their 2 years, but they've also had plenty of frustrating moments as well.

Junior class? Stein is gone, he really didn't come out and say it, but the writings on the wall, he played his last game at Kentucky. Poythress, even if he didn't sustain the ACL injury, I think he would've came back. He brings a ton of energy off the bench, or whatever role he has, but similar to Cauley-Stein, his offensive game is limited. Both are great defenders, especially WCS on the perimeter.

Plus you have to factor in the recruiting class like others have said on here, with the 3 players they have coming in, and a few others who are undecided, and interested in UK. Maybe these recruits are waiting on what some of the players actually do, either stay or go pro.

It should be a very interesting off season, as it always is for Kentucky Basketball.
