Tai Wynyard Says He’s 50-50 On Playing at Kentucky This Season

New Zealand native Tai Wynyard plans to begin classes at the University of Kentucky in December but says he’s 50-50 on playing basketball during the 2015-16 season.

Wynyard is currently playing center for the Breakers in Australia’s NBL league. He spent the summer playing for the New Zealand national team.

Here is an excerpt of Wynyard’s comments:

“School is really tough because I’m hardly there,” he shrugs. “But Rangitoto are really good — they mould it round your schedule. I have a good dean, and they’re all working hard to help me to the NCAA requirements.
