De'Aaron Fox is in Portland, Oregon this week for the Nike Hoop Summit, and Scout.com's Evan Daniels caught up with him yesterday to get his thoughts on Tyler Ulis' announcement that he's headed to the pros. Fox, who previously said he'd love to play alongside Tyler if he came back to Kentucky next year, said he's happy for Ulis and acknowledged he left some big shoes to fill.
"I'm happy for him of course," Fox said. "He had a fantastic year this year but other than that,
with him leaving that's basically just giving me the keys to the program. If Isaiah [Briscoe]comes back, we'll be the point guards next year. Tyler's a great player and it's big shoes to fill."
The Nike Hoop Summit is Saturday at 3 p.m. EDT and will be televised on ESPN2. Fox and Wenyen Gabriel will represent Kentucky. Marques Bolden is also there, and I'm sure is hearing plenty from both UK signees as he gets closer to making his decision.
