2017-18 Kentucky Roster

You see Washington at the 4 over Gabriel if he returns?

 

Yes.

[HammerTime]

I can't fault a kid for trying to jump at any NBA opportunity, but to me I think he could come back and have a huge year for Kentucky and greatly increase his stock. He just now started to get some semblance of confidence in his jumper. If he can prove to be able to knock that down consistently, he could work himself up to be a potential lottery pick.

Very little chance of that happening, but he could work his way into the end of the first round if he makes another leap like this year with his jump shot.

Potential lottery pick. I think I like Briscoes potential more than most.

Anyone see Kevin Knox sitting with the 4 UK recruits last night?

Yes, you sure do.

In the NBDL??? :lol2:

Right now I don't think Briscoe is even draftable. But he has the potential to be. We saw him be able to get to the basket at will during stretches all while having every defender play 10 feet off him because he can't shoot. He made strides shooting the ball this year, the newfound confidence could do wonders for his game. I think he could be a great leader for this team next year and play himself into a much better draft position than he currently has. Maybe lottery pick was a huge stretch, but I guess I'm just a lot more comfortable with Briscoe than some of you.

Has a chance to become a really good 4 year college player if he decides to go that route. His game does not translate well to the NBA at all...

[Jumper_Dad]

Briscoe "Could" run with some second squads in the right situation. Would need to cut down on sloppy turnovers. But on the right team he could fit in, but I'd be shocked if even in a good situation he could make it more than a couple of seasons.

There are tons of players who have played for Cal who I did not think had games that translated well to the NBA. To each his own, maybe I'm seeing things that aren't there. But the only problem I see in Briscoe is confidence. He's never going to be a pure knockdown shooter, but if he can keep the defense honest going forward I think he has a decent career in the league.

[THE SHERIFF]

I hope Briscoe returns next season, he plays hard and he can definitely fill a role. Heck I busted on Rajon Rondo. Didn't think he could have a productive career.

You being terrible at evaluating talent isn't my problem... :idunno: :lol2:

Saw on Twitter that the Cats are starting to look into 6'2" G Jemarl Baker from California. He's the #73 ranked player by 247sports and was committed to Cal before the coaching change. He's since decommitted.

I am probably more of a fan of Briscoe than most on here, but I don't think he has much of a shot at all in the league. Even if he develops his jump shot more.
