NBA 2017-18: Where to Find Former Wildcats in the NBA!
Hello Big Blue Nation! We’re past the halfway point of the NBA season. The trade deadline is in the rear-view mirror, and NBA All-Star Weekend has concluded. Barring any call-ups from the G-League, 10-day contracts for free agents, or worst case scenario: players being waived… this is a definitive list of where our ‘Cats have ended up.
Let’s take a look at the list of former University of Kentucky Wildcats who have found their permanent homes for the remainder of the 2017-18 NBA season. We could see quite a few of these guys in the playoffs this year, so this is a time to celebrate! Enjoy!
