In today's edition, Jonathan Givony has slightly lowered the stock of Kentucky's three projected picks.  Here's where they compare to the May 17 mock draft.
8.  Jamal Murray to the Kings (#6 to New Orleans) 11.  Skal Labissiere to Orlando (#8 to Sacramento) 24.  Tyler Ulis to Philadelphia (#20 to Indiana)
Skal has been slotted by most mock drafts to Orlando, which makes this move the least shocking.  Ulis' drop isn't too terribly significant, even though Philadelphia would be a nightmare for any rookie.  Murray is in the 6-9 range which almost guarantees that he'll be teamed up with at least one other former Wildcat.
