Randle To Enter Draft; Still Waiting on Alex, Dakari and Twins

Today, Julius Randle made his decision and to the shock of absolutely no one, he has decided to enter the 2014 NBA Draft. You can't blame the kid, he has been projected as a top five pick all season long and when you're projected that high, you HAVE to go.

Now that Randle has made his decision, BBN waits to see what Dakari Johnson, Alex Poythress, but probably more importantly, Aaron and Andrew Harrison will decide to do. An argument can be made that they all should return for another season, but if one or all get a guarantee to be taken in the first round, you almost have to go. It only makes good business sense. 

Calipari was set to have a meeting with Aaron, Andrew and their father today to discuss their options. If you have paid any attention to social media you would know that their draft status isn't the best so to speak. Now, that's not to say that their return is all but certain, that's just saying that as of yesterday they have not heard what they expected they would hear at this juncture of their career. If I had to bet, I'd say that they will return for another season at Kentucky, but again, that's just a guess just like everything else that's out there. NO ONE knows what these kids are going to do and anyone claiming they know for certain are making themselves look foolish to say the least.

As for Alex and Dakari, I'd say smart money is on Alex returning for his junior year. The kid actually enjoys school and really wants to earn his degree, but Dakari is a different story. I think Dakari likes school and the whole college experience just fine, but some have said that he may have gotten some information about his draft probabilities that is really making him take a long serious look at entering the draft.

The good news is, we should know what everyone will be doing by this weekend so the wait is almost over. Until then, enjoy the rest of your work-week.

Also, congratulations to Julius Randle on making his decision and we wish him nothing but the best and look forward to watching him tear it up in the NBA.
