CBS Sports’ Gary Parrish has dug around today after the earlier ESPN report about Skal Labissiere’s eligibility and it sounds like the NCAA has questions about his guardian.
Here is an excerpt:
Kentucky freshman Skal Labissiere, projected by many to be the No. 1 overall pick of the 2016 NBA Draft, has not yet been cleared to compete for the Wildcats this season, a source confirmed to CBS Sports on Wednesday.
This doesn’t mean he won’t be cleared, the source noted.
It only means the NCAA still has questions about how Labissiere’s guardian, Gerald Hamilton, handled the prospect’s high school years.
