Arizona 2. Kansas 3. Kentucky 4. UCLA 5. Syracuse I bet he ends up going to UA, because that's the smart pick. Wherever he goes, I wish him the best. I agree with the other person who commented (his comment disappeared for some reason), because the problem is that Mark Lyons wants to be a point guard when Elijah Johnson is at that position. Lyons is better than Johnson, and we'll see what happens if Lyons chooses KU. I honestly think he goes to the Wildcats, but stranger things have happened.

Both he and Lyons will be seniors next season. Yes, having both in the backcourt could be scary, but Lyons already has experience sharing PG duties with another player at Xavier. The feeling here is that both will want to be the main guy in order to boost their NBA stock. That could hurt team chemistry. This has nothing to do with team basketball or whatnot. It has everything to do with two young lives trying to improve themselves in order to secure their future. If one had one more year of eligibility than the other, or if one was for sure that they could make it in the NBA as a 2 guard, then a backcourt of Lyons and Johnson could happen, but since this is not the case then it most likely won't. Arizona has the edge on this situation so I would look for him to go there. Kentucky, if they still want him, has the next best chance after Zona. He is a high risk to take and I believe only Zona would be hurting if he doesn't work out, but he is a risk worth taking.
