This draft created a record by drafting five players from the same school in the first round. The players were all from the University of Kentucky: John Wall (first), DeMarcus Cousins (fifth), Patrick Patterson (fourteenth), Eric Bledsoe (eighteenth), and Daniel Orton (twenty-ninth). The University of Kentucky had five players taken in the first round of the 2010 NBA Draft. When he was selected, John Wall signed an endorsement agreement with Reebok. Wall's quickness and athleticism were excellent in his debut season, but he lost the Rookie of the Year title to the highflyer, Blake Griffin. Wall made his commitment to the University of Kentucky on May 19, 2009, after being recruited by the University of Kentucky, Duke University, Georgia Tech, and the University of Kansas. Wall hit the game-winning shot in his collegiate debut against Miami University. It aided Kentucky's victory with 5 seconds remaining on the clock. He had 19 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 steals in the game.
