Kentucky coach John Calipari has yet another recruiting tool at his disposal this winter.
He can tell prospects that his program has produced more players on opening day NBA rosters than any other school.

Five of the seven Kentucky players who left school early last spring survived final cuts on Monday, increasing the number of ex-Wildcats in the NBA to 21. Kansas is second with 19, followed by Duke (18), North Carolina (15), UCLA (14) and Arizona (13).

While the presence of so many of college basketball's juggernauts on that list is hardly shocking, there were some surprises from my analysis of this year's NBA opening day rosters.
