GREENSBORO, N.C. — Kentucky senior guard Sahvir Wheeler is expected to be cleared to play Friday in the team's first-round NCAA Tournament game against Providence.
Wheeler last played Feb. 4 against Florida, but has missed more than a month with multiple injuries. A final decision on his availability likely won't come until Friday's game, which will tip off at 7:10 p.m.
