LEXINGTON — John Calipari expects Ashton Hagans to be available for the Southeastern Conference Tournament.

"My hope is we'll talk today or tomorrow, and I think he'll be fine," Calipari said Monday morning on the SEC's coaches teleconference. "Whether I start him or not, I don't know. We've got practice days and we'll see how he is. I just want him to be healthy and in a great frame of mind."

Hagans did not make the trip to Gainesville for Kentucky's regular season finale against Florida.
