Kentucky basketball season is (unofficially) here, as the team took the floor for the first practice of the fall on Wednesday.

After a summer of pick-up games, scrimmages, drills and basic fundamental instruction, official preseason practice for the team starts today. Practice starts today, followed by UK Pro Day on Oct. 10, Big Blue Madness on Oct. 15, Media Day on Oct. 20, Blue-White Game on Oct. 22, exhibition games on Oct. 29 and Nov. 5, and then the official season-opener on Nov. 9.

To put it simply, basketball season is not just around the corner, it’s here now, and only ramping up beyond this point.
