Adem Bona down to 8 schools, Kentucky makes cut

Adem Bona’s connection with the Kentucky coaching staff has ramped up in the public eye over the last few months, culminating with a scholarship offer from the Wildcats on Aug. 17.

Since then, the momentum has not slowed down. Bona was initially expected to take an official visit to Kentucky this past weekend but postponed that trip with his eyes reportedly set on attending Big Blue Madness in October. That news broke last week–and now Bona is down to just eight programs, one of which is UK.

According to Joe Tipton of On3, Bona, a 6-foot-10 five-star center from the class of 2022, has narrowed his list to Arizona State, Baylor, Kansas, Kentucky, the NBL, Miami (FL), UCLA, and Southern California.
