UK basketball: Tai Wynyard had an armed student ‘protecting’ him, per report

Tai Wynyard is going through tough times right now, and we may now have some insight as to why he’s currently suspended, though there is no confirmation.

According to a report from the Louisville Courier Journal, fraternities and sororities warned each other via a group message of a “potentially dangerous student” that had a firearm at a party as a means of protecting Wynyard. Sorority members were warned not to approach the student.

The redshirt sophomore forward from New Zealand is currently injured and dealing with a suspension. UK has not said whether or not this incident is related to the suspension.
