Kahlil Whitney

Kahlil Whitney forgoes eligibility, will enter 2020 NBA Draft

Former Kentucky F Kahlil Whitney has hired an agent and will enter the 2020 NBA Draft.

Fantasy Impact

Whitney left Kentucky mid-way through the season due to a lack of playing time and in a surprise turn of events, decided to enter the NBA draft. Prior to joining the Wildcats, Whitney was ranked the #12 prospect in the 2019 recruiting class but according to Draft Express, Whitney is projected to be a second-round pick. He currently sits at #80 on ESPN's top 100 prospects list and due to his limited sample size, it will be a challenge for teams to evaluate his potential. Whitney averaged 3.3 points, 1.7 rebounds, 0.4 assists, while shooting 37.1% from the field across 18 games as a freshman at Kentucky.
