Hamidou Diallo
Diallo was expected to be a late first round pick last summer before he opted to return to Kentucky to play his freshman year under John Calipari. Following a disappointing season, Diallo has seen his stock take a dip but not all the way out of the draft.
Kevin Knox
Knox had one of the better Wildcat seasons, probably second only to Gilgeous-Alexander. However, being second isn’t keeping him from being first in almost every mock draft. Most analysts believe Knox’s comp to be Tobias Harris. A good (not great) starting small forward or “small-ball” power forward.
Today, though, Knox worked out for the Orlando Magic. It’s interesting because Harris played three seasons in Orlando.
It’s also very interesting because the Magic select sixth overall in the draft this year and picking Knox would be beyond a reach. To do so, they’d likely pass on players such as Trae Young, Colin Sexton, Mikal Bridges, Wendell Carter Jr., etc.
Wenyen Gabriel
Gabriel hasn’t been mentioned in any mocks to date, but that doesn’t mean he won’t hear his name called on draft night.
While a workout doesn’t bring any guarantees, it certainly proves interest.
Gilgeous-Alexander’s absence came as a bit of a shock. However he will surely have his fair share of workouts before draft day. The player drawing questions is Vanderbilt, though, as his decision to leave school was unpredicted.
