Kentucky hosted a group of recruits that would make for a pretty strong college team — and maybe even a solid but young NBA team. As Kyle Tucker pointed out, Kentucky’s Madness visitor list included six players ranked among the Top 25 in the class by Scout.com: No. 2 Mohamed Bamba (6-11 center), No. 7 Kevin Knox (6-8 forward), No. 14 P.J. Washington (6-7 forward), No. 17 Nick Richards (6-10 center), No. 22 Trae Young (6-2 guard) and No. 25 Quade Green (6-0 guard). Kentucky also hosted 2018 stars Immanuel Quickley, Cam Reddish and Romeo Langford plus 2019 guys Christian Brown and Austin Hagans. “If you come here, you’re probably going to be a pro,” Cauley-Stein told the players. And that’s exactly the message Calipari wants them to hear.Boogie Cousins in the house. #BBN #BBM16 pic.twitter.com/399ORFuSUQ
