After two seasons with the University of Kentucky Wildcats, Sahvir Wheeler has decided to leave the program and enter the transfer portal. ESPN’s Jeff Borzello broke the news Monday afternoon.
The news of his departure comes as very little surprise.
Wheeler was one of the more polarizing players in recent memory, and over the last several weeks, the picture became clear that he would not be coming back.
After leading the conference in assists two years in a row, things just never clicked this year for Wheeler, who appeared in 21 games for UK, starting in just 14.
