After the departure of several players to the NBA Draft and transfer portal, Kentucky coach Mark Pope has been busy building his roster for the upcoming season. The Wildcats have landed Drexel star forward Amari Williams, a three-time CAA Defensive Player of the Year, and Collin Chandler, a member of the 2022 recruiting cycle who spent the last two years on a Mormon mission. With most of Kentucky’s 2023-24 roster either ineligible, in the transfer portal, or headed to the NBA Draft, Pope’s first order of business is to build a roster for next season.
