The Kentucky Wildcats have clear frontcourt flaws with five-star center Aaron Bradshaw and sophomore standout Ugonna Onyenso both having had foot surgery and set for lengthy recoveries.
While Bradshaw is likely going to be back earlier than Onyenso, the Wildcats took no chance and brought in 7-foot-2 center Zvonimir Ivisic. It was a great addition for Kentucky, but it didn’t budge its chances in the 2024 NCAA Tournament.
Joe Lunardi, ESPN’s premier bracketologist, released an updated NCAA Tournament seeding, and Kentucky didn’t move, still at a 6-seed.
Lunardi had Kentucky sixth in a region led by Michigan State.
