Kentucky WBB's recent transfers could haunt the program

In three days, Kentucky women’s basketball lost two of its top returning players for 2023-24 to the transfer portal. The repercussions of the exits could haunt Kentucky for years.

Forty-eight hours after the Wildcats fell to Tennessee in the quarterfinals of the 2023 SEC Tournament, standout freshman Kennedy Cambridge entered the transfer portal. Just three days after Cambridge’s announcement, star sophomore Jada Walker followed suit.

Both Wildcats released typical statements on their social media accounts.
