Isaac Humphries, Kentucky Wildcats

Isaac Humphries came to Lexington with a lot of hype. Needless to say, he has not even come close to living up to the expectations.

Humphries has only played 525 minutes in his two seasons with the Wildcats, tallying 148 points and collecting 162 rebounds. The 7-footer perhaps showed his enormous potential in the Elite Eight against North Carolina, producing 12 points and hauling in five boards.

Humphries definitely needed to return to Kentucky. The 19-year old has the size and defensive prowess to be an NBA player. He posted an 18.2 PER, meaning the ability is there, he just needs playing time to hone his skill.
