The five starters from the Kentucky Wildcats' NCAA championship basketball team -- Anthony Davis, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Terrence Jones, Doron Lamb and Marquis Teague -- have called a joint press conference for 7 p.m., in which they are expected to all declare for the 2012 NBA draft. The press conference was originally scheduled for 2 p.m., but was pushed back due to the players' academic schedules, according to the school.
Kentucky Basketball Stars Call Press Conference, Likely To All Enter 2012 NBA Draft
If all five players do indeed go pro, it’s not a surprise. Davis was sure to depart, as he’s surely going to be the No. 1 pick. Kidd-Gilchrist and Jones are expected to be high lottery picks, so their decisions aren’t shocking either. Lamb and Teague were less likely to declare for the draft, but both could be first-round picks depending on how things transpire over the next few months.
