Kentucky Basketball: Preseason All-SEC projections and awards
2nd Team All-SEC
Admon Gilder, Texas A&M
Yet another Texas A&M player on the list of the conference’s best. Admin Gilder is a shifty guard. He has the tools to make some noise on the floor for a very talented Aggie squad. With Williams and Davis down low, Gilder’s job will be to facilitate the floor and distribute the wealth. His leadership in his junior season will take A&M where they want to go.
Kevin Knox, Kentucky
In the surprise commit of the summer, Kevin Knox chose John Calipari as his head coach. Knox is a special talent most would think that he should be on the first team list. But, not to the demise of Knox, Washington is going to be the surprise star on Kentucky’s team.
Braxton Key, Alabama
Braxton Key is another Bama product to be listed on the All-SEC team. Key played a big part in last season’s Crimson TIde team. An efficient scorer with a high motor will land jimmy on this list among other SEC greats.
Moses Kingsley, Arkansas
Kinglsey was by far the beatbox Razorback on the floor last season. He will return to the fold next season with an improved roster to try and get Arkansas to The Dance.
Mustapha Heron, Auburn
Heron found himself among the All-SEC team last season. Bruce Pearl’s Tiger squad didn’t have too many bright spots last season. Mustapha Heron said one of those spots and don’t expect that to change this season.
Jarred Vanderbilt, Kentucky
Vanderbilt is another one of Kentucky’s star freshmen. He’s going to be a key part in the Wildcats’ success. Vando will play good enough to find himself on this list at the end of the season.
Dazon Ingram, Alabama
Ingram was a vital piece to the Crimson Tide puzzle last season. With an impressive skill set, and an improved roster of talent, Ingram will flourish with Collin Sexton and John Petty on the floor.
Quindarry Weatherspoon, Mississippi State
Weatherspoon will lead an improved Bulldog squad next season. The returning junior will be the undoubted leader next season for Missisissippi State.
