Hamidou Diallo may be testing the NBA Draft waters, but he’s also thinking about what UK could look like next season.
If Diallo returns, the Cats figure to be a preseason top-three team and a real threat to win it all. There’s just too much talent on the current roster for UK not to be at least a Final Four contender, with or without Diallo.
But if that includes Mohamed Bamba, there’s no question UK would be the No. 1 team and the hands-down favorite to win it all next year. Given what UK has already assembled, adding an elite big man to a roster loaded with talented guards and forward could be what pushes this team over the top.

This team with Diallo, Bamba and Johnson could be even better than the platoon team a couple years ago. They have the potential with 13 guys on the roster that could provide something to the teams overall capabilities. By mid-season they could rival the 1996 team, believe it or not. They would not be sprinkled with any seniors and only 1 junior, Johnson. But they would have the potential to go 40-0. Maybe just a dream of mine but it could happen if they all think championship #9 first
