LOOK: Nate Ament rocks Kentucky blue on official visit

Kentucky hosted a very important visitor this week — and he got to see one heck of a show, in attendance for the Wildcats’ victory over No. 5 Tennessee to complete the season sweep. Nate Ament, the nation’s No. 3 overall recruit in the class of 2025 and UK’s top remaining priority in the high school ranks, arrived Monday and enjoyed a couple of days in Lexington.

Now we’ve got the pictures to prove it, the 6-9 forward out of Virginia posing in Kentucky blue for the very first time in his official visit photoshoot — the highlight of every recruit’s trip to campus.

The top uncommitted prospect in 2025, the five-star forward absolutely looked the part in blue and white as Mark Pope pushes to land his big fish to wrap up the class. Take a look at the photos, posted by Ament after his visit to Kentucky wrapped up this week:

Ament is down to a final 11 of Arkansas, BYU, Duke, Georgetown, Kansas State, Kentucky, Louisville, Notre Dame, Tennessee, Alabama and Texas with the Blue Devils, Cardinals, Fighting Irish, Volunteers and Wildcats of Lexington seen as the top contenders.

“I mean, the first couple of games for them have been insane,” Ament previously said of Kentucky. “For Coach Pope to come in as the new head coach and keep Kentucky going like it was with Coach Cal, is insane to see something something like that. Coach Pope has them playing fast, putting up a lot of points, and shooting a lot of threes.”

Sounds and looks like a future Wildcat, if you ask me.
