Sooner or later, Adou Thiero is going to have his chance. The Kentucky men’s basketball freshman guard came to Lexington as a relatively unknown late bloomer, but quickly dazzled coaches and fans with his stellar preseason play.
As the competition elevated and the schedule spilled over into the regular season, his on-court minutes vanished. However, Thiero has all the tools and potential (and any other buzzword you can think of) to be a legit player for the Wildcats down the road.
The NIL-funded million-dollar question, is when? If you ask his head coach, Thiero is next in line to make it happen.
