When Brennan Canada takes the Rupp Arena floor as a starter on Wednesday night, it’ll be for the first time in his college career. The 6-foot-5 senior out of Mount Sterling, KY has appeared in just 19 games during his four years at Kentucky, mostly coming in as the team’s victory cigar when the Wildcats were leading a blowout during the closing minutes. He’s scored nine points in 27 total minutes since arriving as a freshman walk-on ahead of the 2019-20 season.
But four years later, Canada will be the first one on the floor as he’s honored in front of the Big Blue Nation for the largest Senior Day ceremony of the John Calipari era.
