I honestly never had much hope of him staying. It would be foolish to turn that kind of money down.

It’s going to be a long year.

That kind of money you can't blame him. Wish him the best.

To bad. I was really hoping to see him to play again

I thought with the nil money that he might stay. I wish him well.

I too thought he might stay because of NIL and being a Kentucky kid. I thought it was about 50/50, but I can't blame him. Especially because the draft next year is supposed to be much better than this years. I hope he has a long NBA career.

I heard this morning that if he does end up going #7 to Memphis, his first contract would total in the neighborhood of $17 million dollars!
