The future of the Kentucky men’s basketball program is in good hands.

Recent days have seen the Wildcats secure their fourth commitment in the class of 2023 (five-star center Aaron Bradshaw), along with a new projection for UK to land a fifth commitment in that class (star guard DJ Wagner).

All of this news has come along with the annual Big Blue Madness season kickoff event inside Rupp Arena, signaling the start of the Kentucky men’s and women’s basketball seasons.
