Knowing it's just a guesstimate, but who amongst the top 7-8-9 players are leaning/leaving according to insiders in the program?

Everyone stays, Malik Newman to Ole Miss.

They are all coming back and gunning for UCLA's record winning streak of 88 games.

Or we could just be realistic and say we have no clue. We expected them all to leave last year.
KAT could possibly come back because he values his education and develop more. Not like he would fall out of the top pick regardless. He could also leave because he would be making millions right out of the gate.
Booker could come back because he genuinely enjoys college, and his best friend (Tyler Ulis) will be there again next year. They've been friends since grade school, so it isn't farfetched. Again, while he could come back and develop, he's a lottery pick.
WCS could come back, could go. He's developed a decent offensive skillset, and became the best defender in college while he's been at UK. He knows he could come back next year and win POY, break more defensive records for UK, improve, finish college, and get a degree. He also knows he could make millions for being positioned pretty high in the lottery, so never know.
Twins are/were a tough call. Could come back, play aggressive all year next year like they're doing down the stretch this season, and be in the lottery.

KAT, Booker, the Twins, Lyles, WCS are almost certainly all gone.
Lee, Willis, Hawkins, Ulis, Johnson should all return. There's been some Lee is transferring rumors thrown out there by Jeff Goodman but I think he sees an opportunity to get his spot on the floor next season with some work in the weight room. I'm not sure what Poythress will do since he'll be graduating.

Not that it really matters, lol. You see the 6-7 top 10 players who haven't announced their choice yet. All of them waiting until Kentucky's season is over and which of the current players go pro. If a bunch go pro, then a bunch of the uncommitteds will go to UK. If most stay, then the uncommitteds will go to their second choice school!

Ben Simmons may have something to say about that

This is just sick.

All the draft projections I've seen have Andrew as a mid to late second round pick and Aaron as borderline undrafted. Unless they kill it in the tournament and get really good draft advice, why would they leave?

Yeah it's not a good decision, but they're going to leave.

I figure they'll probably bolster their stock in the tournament. They're ready to go and I think their family thinks so too. I don't see Aaron going undrafted.
I'd be tickled to have them back but I'd be surprised if they were.

KAT with two years in college would still be a #1 pick. We're only see the tip of iceberg of what he's capable of IMO.
