Kentucky men’s basketball newcomers Brandon Boston Jr. and Olivier Sarr were selected to the two preseason All-Southeastern Conference squads by league and national media on Thursday.
Boston, a freshman, was tabbed to the five-man All-SEC First Team and Sarr, a senior transfer from Wake Forest, was one of six players on the All-SEC Second Team.
Voting was conducted by a select panel of both SEC and national media members.
For just the second time in 12 seasons under John Calipari and the first since the 2010-11 year, a season that culminated in a Final Four berth, the Wildcats were not picked to win the regular-season league crown.
