The Kentucky Wildcats came one win away from the Final Four last season, falling to SEC rival Auburn in the Elite Eight.
Then, the team lost three top players — PJ Washington, Tyler Herro and Keldon Johnson — to the NBA Draft and grad transfer Reid Travis to graduation.
However, coach John Calipari has reloaded his roster, and the Wildcats will once again challenge for an SEC title in 2019-20. Recently, Kentucky announced jersey numbers for the upcoming season:

Some interesting numbers to note are Ashton Hagans, who switches from No. 2 to No. 0, allowing Kahlil Whitney to wear No. 2. Highly touted freshmen Tyrese Maxey and Johnny Juzang will wear No. 3 and No. 10, respectively.
It should be another fun season in Lexington, and we’ll have to see how this year’s group of freshmen fares.
