Kentucky men’s basketball welcomes another official visitor to Lexington this weekend.
Beginning Friday, Sept. 29, four-star class of 2024 center Patrick Ngongba will start his first visit with the Wildcats. The 6-foot-10, 235-pound big man is the third high school senior to take an official visit to UK this month, joining four-star point guard Boogie Fland (Sept. 8-10) and four-star wing Billy Richmond (Sept. 15-17).
Ngongba is down to a group of eight finalists, which he announced in July. Kentucky, one of the perceived frontrunners in this recruitment, made the cut, as did Michigan, Duke, Kansas State, UConn, Indiana, Providence, and Kansas.
