All of them will announce they're returning just long enough for somebody to get a 2016 tattoo.
Then they'll bolt.

That's kinda nuts, didn't think those two would bolt. Only guy staying is Ulis.
Marcus Lee also. And Poythress, though he got inured pretty early on.

Poythress is still deciding, according to one tweet I see. "Will go home and talk to family" according to @johnclayiv.
Yeah, I saw that, but I'd bet money he'll be back.

Oh right forgot about those two. Guessing Lee will probably have a more significant role, right?

Anyway, the smaller-yet-similar Duke exodus should begin soon enough.
Where's Grover, need to ask about his jumper. He might be a fifth year walk-on.

I think so. He could even start, though it depends on recruiting. Skal Labissiere will certainly start and UK is in the mix for a few other top 10 big men. If Calipari gets one of them then Lee may still come off the bench.
It's a little surprising to me that Lee hasn't made more of a dent in Cal's rotations thus far. Athletic big men who can block shots and rebound describes most of the best bigs Calipari has had at Kentucky and that's pretty much Marcus Lee's game.

I think Booker will be fine. 6-6, can defend and is a legit great shooter.
Harrisons I really have no idea about. Andrew showed a lot of development this year and his size as a point guard is pretty nice, so I think he has a better chance than Aaron at a decent contract, but I could also see them playing overseas.
Dakari....yeah, I dunno. He's big and a good rebounder, but he looked lost down the stretch this year. Hope he makes dozens of millions and proves me wrong, though.

Willis and Hawkins probably actually will get some playing time too I imagine. Still should be a good team but a ton worse than this past year.
I would presume they would look for a grad transfer PG to back up Ulis, since that seems like the big weakness on the team right now and there's not an unsigned guy to fill that role that I see.

My jumper's A1. I step in the building and I'm in range.
I'm short and injury prone though

The training staff has years of experience managing injuries.

Kyrie made it back!
Just in time for the Blue Devils to flame out against a team playing out of their minds.

Duke's training staff is no doubt good. Can they correct shortness though?
On the other hand, I'm pretty sure I'm the same height as Quinn and he managed to survive.
Sign me up K!
Ryan Kelly made it back too!

Time to bid adieu to the most unique championship team in Duke's history.
8 players
4 frosh
2 players leave
1 game played with 100% 2-3 zone
90 points given up to Miami at home

For real though, that second link above, the rest of that page and into the next is hilarious, in retrospect.
Also, Jeff Goodman is reporting that Hurley to Arizona State is a done deal.

I watched that Miami game in person.
As bad as it looked on TV, it was 73 times worse in Cameron.
Speaking of Never Forget
My stamp of approval means something!

Well, might as well change the name to Ken-Fucked-Ty
No way Kentucky is top ten in the preseason rankings. They probably won't even be ranked period.
Calipari's going to recruit his ass off if he even wants to get close to the NC.

Wat. The shitty 2013 team was ranked in the top 3. UK will be 8-10 at absolute worst.
Whether or not they're actually any good is another story.
Maybe. Last time they lost a lot of talent they went to the NIT (2013) or was only an 8 seed (2014). They are losing even more guys this time.
2014 team was within 6 points of a title though. Came through when it mattered.
I don't think this will be a 2013 NIT type year
but we won't stay a top 5 team. I can see it being like the 2011 final four team. Up and down with 9 losses, but ended up being a good team at the end of the year.

oh god please no
Hey I cosigned that fucker.

WCS strikes me as a player who, despite ranking as 'above average' on lists like this, is going to be an absolutely integral part on pretty successful teams.

Sounds like Kennard is lighting up the Nike Hoop Summit practices.
Not gonna fall for that shit. No sir.
Nope.

Easy mistake, Kentucky and Duke wore the same daggum jerseys for the last month of the season.

Nah Kennard's legit.
Officer Marshall, Grayson Westbrook, and Luke Skywalker Kennard will have our scrappy levels to the max

The historically worst NBA team ever assembled.
