During the 9-16 seasons in 2020-21, Kentucky basketball had a major issues at point guard. Most of the roster pieces did not fit, but it was clear that John Calipari had to fix the point guard position before the next season arrived.
Shortly after the year ended, Devin Askew entered the transfer portal on April 5 and would land at Texas less than two weeks later. From that point, Cal and his staff went on the hunt for a new lead guard.
After vetting multiple candidates, the Wildcats appear to have picked the right one as we’ve reached the midway point of conference play.
