Where are Tubby Smith's Players Now? Part 2 of 5 (Classes of '99 and '00)

Over the course of this week, leading up to Tubby Smith’s return to Rupp Arena with High Point, I am trying to track down his former players to give everybody an update on where they are now. In addition, give a reminder of their impact on the UK program. Some more than others obviously.

Now, after yesterday’s post, there was clearly some confusion about what I’m doing here, so let me clear up a couple things:

1. The years listed are the HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATING CLASS of Tubby Smith’s recruiting classes. So his first recruiting class was the high school class of 1997.
2. I am not listing players who played for Tubby Smith but committed under Rick Pitino. Sorry, no Jeff Sheppard. No Heshimu Evans. No Nazr.
3. No Walk-Ons.

Here are the previous posts:
