Kentucky men’s basketball added its first transfer on Sunday afternoon as Jeff Goodman reported that Drexel’s Amari Williams would be committing to Mark Pope and the Wildcats.

Coming overseas from Nottingham, England, Williams, who is a 6-foot, 10-inch forward, played all four years at Drexel before recently entering the transfer portal to switch things up for his fifth year.

This past season, Williams averaged 12.2 points, 7.8 rebounds (team leading) and 1.9 assists through 32 games. He also led the Dragons in blocks per game with 1.8.

While helping lead the Dragons to a 20-12 overall record, Williams shot 51.
