As the NBA Draft approaches (June 25-26), it appears that two former Kentucky players are likely to be taken in the draft.
Koby Brea is likely a lock to go in the second round. He is currently projected in the 37-46 range by most major draft prognosticators. Sports Illustrated has Brea going 37th overall.
Amari Williams also has a solid chance to go late in the second round. ESPN has Williams going 53rd while SI projects him at 54th.

Only USA Today has Williams going undrafted.
Lamont Butler, Jaxson Robinson, Ansley Almonor and Andrew Carr are also eligible for the draft but it would be surprising if any were picked. Robinson, who is now fully healthy, likely has the best shot of sneaking into the second round.
“But I’m not sure those two are the only ones that will be drafted,” Jay Bilas told KSR recently. “I think Jaxson Robinson, because of his ability to shoot the ball and shoot it from deep, has a very good chance of getting drafted.”
