Few programs in college basketball history have been as successful as the Kentucky Wildcats. They have won eight national championships, made 17 Final Four appearances, won 33 conference tournament titles and captured 53 regular season conference titles. The Wildcats’ eight national titles are the second-most ever won, behind only UCLA, which has 11. Kentucky is in the process of ushering in a new era of Wildcats basketball after John Calipari left Lexington to become head coach from Arkansas. Mark Pope, a standout guard on Kentucky’s 1996 national championship team, was hired by BYU to replace Calipari.
Not only does Pope need to install his system, but he also needs to rebuild Kentucky’s basketball roster. All of the scholarship players on last year’s Wildcats team graduated or transferred, and all but one member of Kentucky’s 2024 recruiting class followed Calipari to Arkansas. Pope has hit the Transfer Portal hard, but still wants to add to his basketball roster at Kentucky.

Kentucky Basketball Roster Matches
Pope had to hit the ground running when he was named Kentucky’s new head coach, as several members of last year’s Kentucky basketball roster left Lexington. Forward Zvonimir Ivisic is the first player to follow Calipari to Arkansas, and guard/forward Adou Thiero followed after playing his last two seasons under coach Cal. Aaron Bradshaw has joined Ohio State, and guard Joey Hart will be on the Ball State roster next season. Point guard DJ Wagner will follow Calipari to Arkansas.
Justin Edwards, Rob Dillingham and Ugonna Onyenso have made the final decision to declare for the Draft. Kentucky will also be without leading scorers Tre Mitchell and Antonio Reeves next season, as both players have graduated. Join CatsPause for the latest on all of Kentucky’s roster changes.
Kentucky Basketball News, Roster
Pope’s biggest addition this offseason could end up being former Oklahoma State center Brandon Garrison. He is a talented big man and a five-star recruit in the class of 2023. In his lone season in Stillwater, Garrison averaged 7.5 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game. His rare mix of size and athletic ability will give Kentucky a physically imposing presence in the frontcourt.
Another transfer player likely to make an immediate impact is former San Diego State point guard Lamont Butler Jr. He was a key contributor to the Aztecs’ Cinderella run to the 2023 national championship game, and his experience is invaluable to a program that is experiencing as much turnover as Kentucky. The 6-foot-2 point guard has career averages of 7.7 points, 2.6 assists and 2.2 rebounds per game. Join CatsPause for the latest on all of Kentucky’s roster additions.
