He is going out on the limb with Murray the 3rd draft choice next season.
1. Skal Labissiere (Kentucky)
Labissierre was born in Haiti but has spent the past several years living in a suburb of Memphis in north Mississippi. While there, he developed into a 7-0 power forward with a unique offensive skillset perfectly suited for the NBA, then signed a letter of intent with Kentucky. So, yes, the Wildcats should have the top pick in the NBA Draft again next June.
3. Jamal Murray (Kentucky)
Murray recently reclassified to 2015 and committed to Kentucky, at which point he became the missing piece to yet another national-title contender. The 6-5 guard will play with Tyler Ulis and Isaiah Briscoe in Kentucky's backcourt for a season, then probably join Labissierre as names John Calipari can add to his growing list of NBA Draft picks.

Here is what Chad Ford of ESPN has as his next years draft picks.
Incoming freshman Skal Labissiere is the No. 2 overall prospect behind Louisiana State signee Ben Simmons for next year’s draft, according to Ford. Labissiere — a 7-footer from Haiti — is listed as the No. 1 pick in the latest 2016 mock draft from DraftExpress.com.
Fellow UK freshmen Isaiah Briscoe (16th) and Jamal Murray (19th) also made Ford’s list, which was released Friday.
That list also includes UK junior Marcus Lee (54th), sophomore Tyler Ulis (56th) and senior Alex Poythress (No. 87). There are 60 picks in the NBA Draft, and Poythress would have the option of returning to UK for an additional season if he applies for a medical redshirt to make up for missing most of the 2014-15 campaign with a knee injury.

I really expect Poythress to get drafted.

I agree with Norm if his injury doesn't slow him down Poythress should be a first round draft pick.
