That is great news, gives us the depth we need at the guard positions to be a real contender next year.

I'm not believing it until it comes from him. Even if he doesn't get drafted in the first round, he's looking at a lot of money. I hope he has really good advisors.

Today is decision day so we should know something for certain by the end of the day. The Cats Pause and 247 sports are both reporting that he is returning to UK, time will tell. [ 05-24-2017, 09:16 AM: Message edited by: SCWC ]

It looks like Hamidou Diallo was set to have one last workout before making his NBA Draft decision.
According to a report from ESPN’s Ian Begley, Diallo was part of a group scheduled to workout for the Knicks on Wednesday, but he ended up pulling out. The workout also included Kentucky Wildcats forward Bam Adebayo.
The Knicks workout today included Iowa State's Deonte Burton, Kentucky's Bam Adebayo, Purdue's Caleb Swanigan and LSU's Antonio Blakeney today, ESPN has learned. Kentucky's Hamidou Diallo was supposed to work out but pulled out. Diallo is reportedly deciding on whether or not to stay in the draft.
The fact that Diallo had this workout scheduled explains why he is waiting until the last day to make his decision, but seeing him pull out of it is a bit odd. Then again, the Knicks aren’t in position to draft Diallo where he wants.
