1. Kentucky Wildcats
Jeremy Roach has been a name bandied about as a player who could enter the transfer portal for the past few months. On Wednesday afternoon, the rumor became a reality. Senior guard and Duke captain Roach has left the Blue Devils and is entering the NBA Draft and transfer portal. Roach started 108 games for Duke and averaged 14 points per game, shooting 42.9% from three in 2023. The new coach at Kentucky, Mark Pope, could use a veteran guard to shoot the three. Pope could immediately make a significant splash with the experienced lead guard, and his system allows guards freedom to shoot from the perimeter. UK has a nearly empty roster, will Roach want to be a part of the reboot?
