It’s not often you get a two-time All-SEC point guard and Bob Cousy Award finalist back for a senior season, especially at Kentucky. That’s the case with Sahvir Wheeler, who is returning for his second year in Lexington and fourth college season overall after finishing third in the nation and first in the SEC in assists at 6.9 per game to go with 10.1 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 2021-22.

That’s the good — and there was a whole lot of it.
