Kentucky will be at full health for 1st time all season vs. Ole Miss
Folks, it’s finally happening.
For the first time all season, Kentucky men’s basketball will have a full roster available to play. Head coach John Calipari made the announcement during his pregame radio appearance alongside Tom Leach. The No. 22 Wildcats are set to host Ole Miss at 9:00 p.m. EST on ESPN inside Rupp Arena.
That being said, Calipari did add that Tre Mitchell has only practiced once this week and that DJ Wagner has practiced three days, but confirmed that they are “ready to go.”
Mitchell has sat out the last two games with a back injury while Wagner returned against Gonzaga on Saturday following a three-game absence due to an ankle issue. Wagner played just 13 minutes against the Bulldogs in his first back game. Calipari also says he plans to play more small ball by slotting Mitchell at the 5 and Adou Thiero at the 4.
