At this point it wouldn’t shock me to see Riley Welch test the waters with plans of going to play professionally in Greece. Mass exodus to get a bunch of 17 year olds in here who can’t wait to leave themselves! 2021 Kentucky Basketball.

Just a wag:

EJ 50
Nick 0
IQ 2

The only way I see otherwise is if Covid makes the draft or NBA get wonky, or some other oddball variable such as injury.

Who says there will even be a college or NBA season in 2020-21? Maybe they don't get drafted until the second round (EJ probably not at all) and by the time basketball returns, the draft is loaded and none of them except maybe Nick ends up in the NBA unless he gets guaranteed money.

The sooner you accept it for what it is the better.

I always wondered how that was done. Seems to be just a WAG...
There is actually a formula for it. You take the players total points for the season, field goal percentage, and assists, and subtract their rebounds, if they had more rebounds or do the same but add rebounds and subtract assists if they had more assists. Then you divide by their opposite projected draft position according to the most accurate draft projection sites.

So for Richards you have 435+64+7 = 516
516-241= 275
275/26= 10.58% chance

IQ
482+41+56= 579
579-126=453
453/36= 12.58% chance

EJ
171+52+17=240
240-151= 89
89/1 (lowest you can go)= 89% chance

Looks like we have a good shot at getting EJ back, although it’s not certain, while Nick and IQ are likely gone.
