OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — National player of the year Anthony Davis isn’t giving away whether he and four teammates from national champion Kentucky will declare for the NBA draft at a news conference today.
But with the possibility that all could leave college early, coach John Calipari says “my guess is we’ll need a new batch.”
Kentucky announced Monday that Davis, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Marquis Teague, Terrence Jones and Doron Lamb will announce their intentions at a news conference in Lexington, Ky. Davis was in Oklahoma City on Monday night to pick up the Wayman Tisdale Award as the nation’s top freshman.
The 6-foot-10 forward won The Associated Press, Naismith and Wooden awards for national player of the year.
When asked about his decision, Davis said: “You’ve got to wait. It’s only a day away.”
