Who wore it better? Current Kentucky basketball players carry history in jersey numbers

LEXINGTON - What is in a number?

A lot of history for the 2019-20 Kentucky men’s basketball players.

UK released the jersey numbers for the current Wildcats Tuesday evening. Barring an unexpected commitment from five-star forward N’Faly Dante, a 2020 recruit rumored to be planning a move to the 2019 class but also considering LSU and Oregon among others, the 2019-20 roster is set.

Sophomore point guard Ashton Hagans will move from No. 2 to No. 0, taking over the jersey number vacated when former teammate Quade Green transferred to Washington. The other four returning Wildcats will keep their numbers from last season.
