Wow.

Just finished watching Kentucky's last exhibition game before they start their regular season. Nerlens Noel and Willie Cauley-Stein, are both 6'11" bigs, are both are 18 years old, and are both unreal talents that will be high draft picks next year.

Both hustled as if they were playing for the championship. Noel showed unreal lateral speed and ability to guard perimeter players. Cauley-Stein showed a great foul shooting touch. Noel is a down low presence on both ends of the court. Cauley-Stein runs the floor as good as any person his size playing basketball. Noel has unbelievable hands and a nasty jump hook with either hand. Cauley-Stein has great jumping ability and is born to be an alley oop machine.

Overall the Kentucky defensive speed is off the hook. Looks like another blue and white year in college basketball.
