5 UK players going pro, all "projected as first-rounders".
So this kid is worthy of a first round pick? http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/player/pr ... erId=45884
Unreal.

He would have been better off playing a year as the starting center for Kentucky first. Scouts have only gotten a limited look at him to-date.

He didn't hire an agent so after testing the waters it's possible he'll be back, though if it looks like he'll go in the first round I doubt he'll pass it up. I agree he could help himself by coming back and getting much more playing time next year. He was one of Gillespie's recruits and Cal had to work at keeping him from backing out. Its possible he is not a Cal fan and that could be a factor as well.

That's usually not a bad thing for top "prospects."
