01/05/2024 Raymond 0

Kentucky has a knack for producing NBA-ready guards, and Rob Dillingham emerges as a compelling prospect for the Toronto Raptors in this year’s draft. Standing at 6-foot-3 and weighing 176 pounds, Dillingham mirrors the profile of many agile guards from Kentucky’s ranks. His offensive prowess was evident as he averaged 15.2 points per game off the bench for the Wildcats, boasting impressive shooting percentages of 47.5% from the field and 44.4% from beyond the arc. Despite not fitting the mold of a traditional point guard, Dillingham’s 3.9 assists per game hint at his evolving playmaking abilities, positioning him ahead of his predecessors like Immanuel Quickley and Tyrese Maxey in college.
