Report: Kentucky's Dakari Johnson to declare for NBA draft

The exodus of Kentucky players continues.

Wildcats center Dakari Johnson will reportedly declare for the NBA draft, foregoing his junior season, according to SNY.tv's Adam Zagoria.

The 7-foot, 255 pounder out of Brooklyn, NY., didn't contribute much in the team's final two games, but had a good showing against West Virginia in the Sweet Sixteen. He scored 12 points, six rebounds and two blocks in the victory.

It is expected that Johnson will make the announcement official during Thursday's press conference in which a number of his teammates will make their NBA draft declarations. 

Johnson averaged 6.4 points with 4.6 rebounds and .9 blocks off the bench.
