The 1995-96 Kentucky Wildcats basketball team was one of the most dominant in history.

Deemed “The Untouchables,” the team only lost two games all season en route to winning the national title, the first for coach Rick Pitino.

Fittingly, the majority of players on that team went on to enjoy success in basketball after Kentucky as well. Nine players from the team went on to play in the NBA, and a few broke into the coaching ranks. Below, we take a look at what happened to “The Untouchables.”
