Kentucky Basketball broadcasts will now be available in Mandarin

Kentucky Basketball is going global. According to our friend John Huang, broadcasts of games will now be available in Mandarin through the JMI Sports Network, opening a new portal to the program’s Chinese fans.

UK grad student Austin Zhang will handle the primary broadcasting duties. You may remember him as the guy who asked John Calipari when he was going to add a Chinese player to the squad back in January:

During tonight’s John Calipari Call-In Show at the brand new Champions Kitchen on UK’s campus, students had the opportunity to ask Coach Cal some questions of their own.
