Three Kentucky Wildcats Ranked in Evan Miya's Preseason Top 100

Malachi Moreno, Milan Momcilovic and Zoom Diallo all placed among college basketball's top 100 players in Evan Miya's preseason rankings.

Analytics outlet EvanMiya.com released preseason player rankings covering college basketball players nationwide, and three Kentucky Wildcats landed in the top 100. Malachi Moreno was rated 11th, Milan Momcilovic 46th and Zoom Diallo 67th.

The gap between Kentucky's top three and the rest of the roster is notable in the rankings. Expected starters Alex Wilkins and Kam Williams came in at 608th and 250th, respectively, leaving a clear divide behind Diallo.

Both Moreno and Momcilovic had entered the NBA Draft before withdrawing and returning to school, decisions that reshaped the roster for coach Mark Pope's third season in Lexington. Kentucky sits 18th in Evan Miya's preseason top-30 team rankings.

The Wildcats open the season November 3 against Manhattan, followed by a November 10 matchup with Kansas.
