Hamidou Diallo announced late Wednesday night that he would be staying at Kentucky to play his freshman season. The New York native enrolled at UK in January but redshirted during the spring semester.
But he's back and hoping to improve his draft stock after the season. ESPN writer John Gasaway thinks Diallo will be one of the best players in college basketball next season. Gasaway ranked Diallo 21st in his top-25 rankings. He was the only player from UK to make the list.
The Wildcats are bringing in the No. 1 recruiting class again, but forward Kevin Knox is the only player ranked in the top 10. Still, the Wildcats will have eight five-star players on the roster next season.
Duke's Grayson Allen topped the list for the second straight year. View the complete list here.
