The Kentucky Wildcats will undoubtedly need assistance when the college basketball transfer portal opens on Tuesday. Fans should anticipate a number of additions as they are losing some important players and need to replenish their squad with skill. Rumors of potential interest from Mark Pope and his team have already surfaced, and on Monday, Jalen Haralson was added.
In the class of 2025, Haralson was a significant recruit. A 6’7″, 220-pound guard from Indiana, he choose Notre Dame over the Hoosiers and Michigan State. 247Sports gave him a four-star rating and placed him as the class’s 18th best player overall.
He was outstanding as a freshman last season, averaging 16.2 points and 4 rebounds per contest. He struggled from three-point range, but he is excellent at getting downhill and scoring around the rim. He can guard several positions and is a good perimeter defender.
The Wildcats’ interest was reported by Kentucky Sports Radio’s Jacob Polacheck (subscription required), although there will undoubtedly be fierce competition. He would be a good substitute for Otega Oweh if the Wildcats were able to sign him.
This story will be updated as it progresses.
