Alex Poythress Has Made His NBA Decision

Calipari also noted that Poythress will not be delayed by his knee injury in returning to pre-season practices.

Here are some of Calipari’s comments regarding Poythress (via Jerry Tipton of the Herald-Leader):

For starters, Calipari said Thursday that Alex Poythress has decided to return to Kentucky for his senior season in 2015-16.

“We’ve talked,” Calipari said. “I think he’s wanting to come back. So I think he’ll be fine.”

Poythress’ return to pre-season practices will not be delayed because of the anterior cruciate ligament he tore in mid-December and had surgically repaired, Calipari said.
