Kentucky men's basketball is halfway through summer practices

Four weeks down, four weeks to go…

Kentucky men’s basketball has officially hit the halfway point of summer practices. According to NCAA rules, college programs are allowed eight total weeks (capped at eight hours per week) of weight training and on-court skill instruction during the summer semester. Only four hours per week can be dedicated to on-court practice sessions.

With the “Blue Summer” already at the halfway point, the video team over at UK provided us with some more offseason content. One clip is a highlight reel of what’s been happening during practice at the Joe Craft Center, with a Mark Pope pep talk played over the videos. The second clip is labeled “lights out” as several Wildcats show off their shooting stroke. Collin Chandler hitting a jumper with the No. 9 banner in the background is perfect cinema. And finally, the third clip — “no regard for gravity” — is nothing but dunk after dunk after dunk.

Watch all three videos below to satisfy your basketball craving. Kentucky’s 2025-26 season isn’t too far off…
