Good morning, BBN!
Today is the day we find out exactly which players will stay in the NBA Draft and which will officially declare for it.
Obviously, all eyes are on Milan Momcilovic for Kentucky.
If the Cats can convince him to come back for this year, that gives BBN the spark plug it needs to get excited about the coming season.

However, it looks like the Arizona Wildcats have become a contender for Momcilovic because they believe Koa Peat will stay in the draft. St. John’s has also been heavily in the mix.
If the Cats can’t land Momcilovic, their options are looking tigher and tigher to fill their last roster spots.
Allen Graves was another one to potentially watch out for, but with first-round projections, it seems he’ll be staying in the Draft, same with Tounde Yessoufou.
For what it’s worth, Mike Rutherford of Card Chronicle and SB Nation thinks Momcilovic returns to school and signs with Kentucky.
A big day for BBN. Do you think Momcilovic stays? If he doesn’t, do you think he’ll commit to UK?
