Kentucky Rebounds with Mark Mitchell | College Basketball News

Kentucky’s basketball program is on the rebound after early offseason setbacks, but a major win with Mark Mitchell’s commitment—made possible by a recent court ruling allowing him to play a fifth college season—is turning heads. Mitchell, who averaged 18 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists at Missouri, elevates Kentucky to No. 12 in preseason rankings. The Wildcats also secured Malachi Moreno (who withdrew from the NBA draft) and Milan Momcilovic (from Iowa State), while navigating NCAA eligibility uncertainty for some 2022 recruits. Despite past misses on top targets, the staff is building momentum for a competitive 2024-25 season. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
