The featured game of the day was a clash of centers.  6'11" Mohammad Bamba is considered the #2 player in the class of '17, but Evan Daniels said he's making a case to be #1.  He lined up against the #1 player, 7-footer DeAndre Ayton, today and the two went toe-to-toe.  As of now, Bamba appears to be a Duke-lean; Ayton's top three include Duke and Kentucky along with Kansas. This morning Calipari watched his #1 point guard target, Trae Young, and small forward Michael Porter Jr.  Evan Daniels reports that he'll pay an in-home visit to the nation's #2 small forward, Kevin Knox, on Monday.
