Kentucky Wildcats have contacted High Point transfer Kimani Hamilton

The Kentucky Wildcats already have a slew of transfer portal players committed for Mark Pope’s second season in Lexington, and they aren’t stopping there.

The Cats still have to round out their roster, and they’ll need to add more production in their backcourt. Kentucky has quite the incoming recruiting class as well with guard Jasper Johnson, Pope’s first 5-star talent with the Wildcats, and high 4-star forward Malachi Moreno.

Kentucky has already received commitments from Mo Dioubate, Kam Williams, Jaland Lowe, Jayden Quaintance, and Croatian forward Andrija Jelavic.

A new name to monitor is High Point transfer Kimani Hamilton, who has been contacted by the Cats, among several other top programs.

Hamilton is a 6-foot-7 forward who grew up in Clinton, Mississippi. He was elected to the All-Big South team two seasons in a row after transferring to High Point from Mississippi State, where he saw limited time as a freshman.

With his help, High Point made the NCAA Tournament this past season.
