Junior forward Derek Willis will be back for the No. 22 Kentucky Wildcats when they host the LSU Tigers on Saturday at Rupp Arena, coach John Calipari confirmed on Friday.
After helping to pace the Wildcats to a 10-5 record since the beginning of 2016, Willis was sidelined for his team's last three games with an ankle injury.
LSU is one of the teams that was able to beat Kentucky in January, earning a convincing 85-67 home win thanks to 21 points from Tim Quarterman.
The Tigers go into Saturday's game with a shot at the top seed in the SEC.
