Not much to report game wise, another blowout. Cats 10-14 behind the arc in the 1st half. SEC freshman of the week likely to be Doron Lamb who is 7-8 behind the arc and at 32 points and counting.

In a side note, the Kanter family announced that if ruled eligible for next season and not this season, he will indeed stay at UK. Next years class plus Lamb, Kanter, Liggins and Miller, is formidable to say the least.

Lamb won't be in the NBA? What about Liggins as well? He probably just wants to get the heck out asap if he has a legitimate grade for the draft after all he's been through even if Cal was a blessing for him and his career.

With the prospect of an NBA lockout, I don't think anybody without a top 10 projection will be overjoyed to test the waters and potentially fall in the 2nd round. Lambs game is suited for college, but not yet ready for the pro's. Liggins is ready right now to be a 15 minute 7th or 8th man on an NBA roster. However, I think both will be here. Possibly even Knight.

He is an average college player at best?

above average - and has an nba ready game and the frame.

Daniel Orton was a terrible college player.

You need to become more acquainted with what NBA scouts and GM's look for in role players that come off the bench, he fits the bill perfectly. Can shoot it, slash the lane, grabs all loose/hustle balls, and most importantly is a defensive stopper. They are a valuable comodity.

I don't see Knight - what are Lamb's measurables? He is a player.

Somewhere around 6'3", and a lean build. He is fast, probably more so than Knight. Good handles, and obviously a sharp shooter. His limitation right now is mainly upper body strength and the ability to be physical. He can be muscled out of position, and thrown off his game. However, he is probably my favorite player of this class.
