A few days ago, former Kentucky Wildcat Shai Gilgeous-Alexander signed a massive deal to stay in Oklahoma City for the next five years. This deal was for 285 million total, making the yearly salary of SGA 71.25 million.
Starting in 1985, the NBA implemented a lottery system in order to determine which team receives the No. 1 overall pick in that year's draft. But, this time we don't want you to name the top pick, but instead the pick that came after No. 1. How many of the second overall picks from this time cane you name in six minutes?
The starter list just came out for the 2025 NBA All-Star Game, and two former Kentucky Wildcats are starters. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is a starter in the Western Conference, while Karl-Anthony Towns is a starter in the Eastern Conference.
The Kentucky basketball program has made a lot of history, and some of that history has included putting some elite players in the NBA. Despite all of the talent Kentucky has put in the NBA, they have not had an MVP in the league, but that could change this season.
The former Cats are thriving this season. The Kentucky Wildcats have continually produced some of the best players at the highest level in basketball. This season is no different, as both Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Karl-Anthony Towns have been terrific for their respective teams.
