“Man… this is to my brothers Ty and Dre. I am so thankful I got to play with you guys for 3 years,” Guy wrote. “You were the best teammates I’ve ever had and the best players I’ve ever played with. Even more so you were incredible friends and always knew how to make us laugh lol. It’s an emotional week and tomorrow our dreams come true.
“I am your guys biggest fan and so hype to hear your names called tomorrow night. We came to UVA and said we wanted to win a national championship and get drafted together… that’s special. Not many people can say they did that.
“No matter what happens tomorrow we left everything on the court to accomplish our goals. I’m gonna miss playing at JPJ and spitting bars before games. Gonna miss doing our handshakes and telling Dre to smile when he misses shots. Most of all I’m gonna miss the brotherhood we built over these years. It’ll last forever and you know I got your backs no matter what.
“Knowing we’ll never put on our Virginia jerseys together is a hard pill to swallow. But y’all are killers and without you guys I’m not sure I’m in the position I’m in now (y’all made me look better than I am). So thank you. Because you’ll never understand what you guys and these 3 seasons have meant to me. I love y’all man, go make your dreams a reality.”
De’Andre Hunter is likely to be a top 10 pick. Ty Jerome should be a late first round pick. Kyle Guy is projected as a late second round pick, according to some.
