Has anyone had a more eventful summer than Derek Willis?

Former Kentucky player Derek Willis lived with John and Ellen Calipari for about a month.

He signed with a professional team in Germany.

And, oh yeah, his most eventful summer will include getting married on Saturday.

With that overflow of experiences, no surprise that Willis seemed to be dealing with sensory overload during an autograph signing at Fayette Mall on Tuesday night.

“It’s been a stressful week,” he said of the wedding planning. “It’s been crazy all over the place. Driving everywhere to get stuff. On the phone all the time.”

UK fans may remember that Willis proposed to Keely Potts near mid-court during UK’s Senior Day ceremony in 2017.
