Tai Wynyard update as 4-star big man gets set to join Kentucky Basketball

The Kentucky Wildcats could be getting some frontcourt help as early as next week with the imminent arrival of Tai Wynyard.

A 6-10 power forward out of New Zealand, Wynyard will arrive in Lexington in the coming days and be eligible to play next Saturday when Kentucky takes on the Ohio State Buckeyes in Brooklyn. Originally a four-star prospect in the 2016 class, Wynyard reclassified into the 2015 class as a mid-season addition.

Adam Zagoria of SNY.tv recently talked to Wynyard's mom, Karmyn, and while she confirmed her son is coming to UK next week, it's still possible he redshirts and doesn't play in games this season.
