WALL CHOOSES KENTUCKY

The John Wall saga finally is over. The top-five point guard chose Kentucky over Miami, Duke and many, many others after a protracted struggle that has been the No. 1 recruiting storyline throughout the spring.

Wall at one time had favored Memphis, and when John Calipari made the switch to Kentucky so did Wall's interest. The ultra-athletic 6-4 PG is a likely one-year player and should put together quite a highlight reel in that one year. With size and speed that scream NBA prototype, he is an exquisite talent who needs refinement but could become a superstar five years from now.
