...the score is either tied or the lead is just one for either team. What five UK players that you have watched play do you want on the floor?

I'll go Kyle Macy, Aaron Harrison, Tayshaun Prince, Scott Padgett and Karl Anthony Towns.

Macy. He won’t make a mistake.
Sky. Get it to him on the block and he’s gonna score or get fouled.
Mash. His inside/outside ability allows him to potentially take advantage of any matchup.
Bowie. Best passing big man in the program’s history.
Delk. Money.

I want the walk ons and cigar boys out there with 1 minute left. Means we are up 20 and the starters are cheerleaders.

Cool, but that's not the hypothetical the OP laid out so...

To answer the question, I'd take Fox, Aaron Harrison, Delk, Padget, and AD.

Thank you for letting us know you don’t care. I mean… you sort of took the time to post on something you don’t care about to let everyone know you don’t care so….. thumbs up??

Most people list a player that played for John Calipari in their lineup. You disagree? Or you just want people to know you really care that they know you don’t care?

Btw I’ll take 5 Saul Smiths. He was not tainted by Cal plays. So we agree, right?

Anthony Epps, Jamall Murray, Jamal Mashburn, Kenny Walker and Sam Bowie/AD (depending on if we're one up or one down)

I feel like I have a good mix of:
-leadership
-inside-outside offensive efficiency
-clutch shot-making/confidence
-defense and rim protection
-finally, the ability to close it out at FT line.

Ulis (floor general, 84.6% FT)
Aaron Harrison (big shot after big shot, 78.7% FT)
Herro (he's a bucket, plus big shots and no fear, ice it at FT line 93.5%)
AD (offensive rebounds, elite defender, and rim protection, 70.9% FT)
KAT (offensive rebounds, go-to post scorer, 81% FT)

Aaron Harrison? You’re crazy. He wasn’t even that good. Yes he hit a couple big shots. But overall he was barely above average

You'd need players who are "clutch". How anyone can leave Aaron Harrison off is baffling to me. Kid clutched us all the way through the tournament on way to a championship appearance.... Easy pick for me.

He was clutch on those shots. Overall he was a very average 3 point shooter. I’d much rather have guys who shoot 40% or more

How many guys have we had that shot over 40% on the same amount of attempts?? We only had 11 guys in the history of our program that shot over 40% for their career. 6 of those guys are from the Cal era.

We're talking the last minute of a close game. How many guys did what Aaron did in one tournament game? Aaron did it in three straight. AND hit the free throws that put Louisville away for good. His three against Notre Dame the next year would have added to the lore if Dakari wasn't late closing out on Grant on the next possession.
