Kentucky MBB will reportedly play Penn in Philadelphia this December

The Wildcats are headed to the northeast.

According to college basketball insider Jon Rothstein, Kentucky men’s basketball will travel to Philadelphia, PA to take on the Ivy League’s Penn Quakers on Saturday, Dec. 9th at the Wells Fargo Center. It will be a “homecoming” game for a handful of current Kentucky freshmen, as Justin Edwards, DJ Wagner, and Aaron Bradshaw all hail from the area. In particular, Edwards played for Philly’s Imhotep Charter in high school before coming to UK. Head coach John Calipari also holds plenty of connections to the area.
