Fardaws Aimaq cuts Kentucky from list

The Kentucky Wildcats have been busy in the transfer portal so far this offseason reaching out to a number of potential players to bring in depending on who ends up leaving for either the NBA Draft or transfer.

Kentucky was one of the first schools to reach out to Utah Valley big man Fardaws Aimaq, when he entered the transfer portal last month. Aimaq later said that Kentucky was among the schools prioritizing him the most, so there was clearly a lot of interest from John Calipari and co.

Aimaq was the second-best rebounder in college basketball last season, behind only Oscar Tshiebwe, but he’s cut Kentucky from his final list, now focusing on Washington, Iowa, Gonzaga, Texas Tech, and Texas.
