UK’s incoming group features point guard De’Aaron Fox, shooting guard Malik Monk, small forward Wenyen Gabriel and post players Bam Adebayo and Sacha Killeya-Jones, who together are ranked as the No. 1 recruiting class in the country, according to Rivals.com, ESPN and the Recruiting Services Consensus Index composite rankings.
Kentucky coach John Calipari says speed will be the biggest asset of next year's team so he wants it to get up and down the floor.
Like in past years, the new Wildcats will take classes this summer — on-campus pick-up games among UK players and others are also a common occurrence — as they prepare for their freshman seasons.

I think playing those pickup games aganst the Ex players is huge for team chemistry and confidence. No other school imo can face that type of competion in practice. It just shows the love the ex players have for UK.

It's a win-win situation for all the players. It's what makes Kentucky what it is, the best basketball program in the country.
