Former Kentucky Wildcats in the NBA: 1/6 Edition

Found January 06, 2012 on Wildcat Blue Nation:
PLAYERS: DeMarcus Cousins,  Chuck Hayes,  Keith Smart
TEAMS: Sacramento Kings,  Kentucky Wildcats

DeMarcus Cousins (C), Chuck Hayes (F) Sacramento Kings
For now, it appears to be a lovefest between Boogie and new King coach Keith Smart, as evidenced by the picture above. And for a night, Cousins played like a man with no worries, scoring 19 points and grabbing 15 rebounds in the Kings 103-100 win over the Bucks. Bad news for Chuck Hayes however who disclocated his shoulder and is out indefinitely. Hayes scored 2 points and grabbed 1 rebound.
