    It not that DJ Wagner is overrated, he wasn't the point guard in highschool. Go back and do some homework,he played off the ball and Coach Calipari put him on the 1 guard spot which is not his natural spot.He basically was learning the point guard spot. And he didn't pick it up as fast as they thought. Thats why he was thinking before he would shoot. He's still learning that position but he will be aight, I just hate that it went down like this.😢

    DJ is talented, but he needs to learn how to create contact when driving to the basket. Considering that is his strength is driving to the basket, he should have already had this in his bag. He has to improve his jump shot and playmaking abilities. He is a score first guard, he rarely looks for the extra pass, and he should come back to college next year because he will improve significantly and could actually raise his draft stock. Him and Edwards both had trouble finishing the basket all year. They played scared it seemed and never let loose and just played basketball. I agree though Cal messed up, Rob Dillingham should have been the primary guard on this team and starting. Had Cal done that this teams would have reached their potential.

    Didnt show much first season. Maybe, he will improve in second season. But, the NBA cares more about size and athleticism. Maybe, they will still draft him high. Jump shot is horrible at this point.

    His grandfather is "Milt Wagner" a legend in his own right at U of L . Mister history teacher guru . DJ is a lock down defender , was injured part of the season and so what if Cal promised him a guaranteed starting spot , which is bullshit . His legendary bloodline is deserving of it. His dad Dajuan was John Wall but only got one contract because he had some health issues that almost killed him and cut his career short . If Cal started DJ just to get him some exposure in hopes of him getting paid , what his dad should have made in the NBA but was robbed of the chance . I say hats off to Cal , thats a loyal motherfucker . I love Dj , he a good person , was raised right , and he did UK a fine job this season . It was an honor for us to be represented by such a great kid . what would you have done , talked your way into the lineup ?
