A limited roster has Kentucky Basketball playing small until its three seven-footers are available to participate. Associate head coach Orlando Antigua called them Kentucky’s “21 feet” during Tuesday’s press conference, referring to injured centers Aaron Bradshaw and Ugonna Onyenso and newcomer Zvonimir Ivisic, who awaits clearance from the NCAA.

In the meantime, Tre Mitchell is the only Wildcat taller than six feet, eight inches on the roster, so the stretch-forward transfer from West Virginia is the closest thing to a big man.
