Denzel Aberdeen transferring to Kentucky for senior season, leaving national champion Florida

Denzel Aberdeen deciding to enter the transfer portal after Florida won the men's college basketball national championship was enough of a surprise.

But the 6-foot-5 guard doubled down on shock value by choosing to transfer to SEC rival Kentucky, according to several reports.

Going into his senior season, the guard figured to have a significant role for head coach Todd Golden's squad, taking over the lead scoring role left by Walter Clayton Jr., while Will Richard and Alijah Martin have also finished their eligibility.
