What’s going on with Kentucky basketball recruiting? Top links from the Next Cats blog.
As expected, five-star center Aaron Bradshaw showed up in Lexington for his official visit to Kentucky over the weekend, a big step for the Wildcats in their pursuit of arguably the best big man in the 2023 class.
Bradshaw received a scholarship offer from UK back in April, and he’s been named the defensive MVP of the Nike circuit for two of league’s three sessions so far this spring. Bradshaw is the No. 20 overall player in the 2023 class, according to the 247Sports composite rankings, and Louisville is among the other teams on his list.
Immediately after his Kentucky trip, Bradshaw headed straight to U of L for an official visit on that campus.
