Two years ago, Reece Potter graduated from Lexington Catholic<\/a> and headed up to Miami (OH) where he would begin his college basketball career.<\/p>\n

The 7\u20191 big man would spend two seasons playing for the RedHawks but fast forward to this off-season and his dream of playing for the University of Kentucky came calling.<\/p>\n

Head coach Mark Pope has now had two off-seasons where he has had to either start from scratch (2024) or replace a ton of veteran production (2025) and that has been led to him being a wizard when it comes to the transfer portal.<\/p>\n

In early May, Potter committed to transfer to Kentucky. While he probably had more opportunity for extended minutes at Miami (OH), he couldn\u2019t pass up the opportunity<\/a> to wear the Kentucky uniform and represent his dream school.<\/p>\n

With Kentucky having a rather stacked front court, Potter\u2019s role may be quite a bit less this year than his first two seasons of college basketball. However, he\u2019ll have every opportunity to improve his game\/get stronger and be ready to go a season or two from now.<\/p>\n

His play style perfectly fits what Pope and his staff want to do on the court, so one would think Potter\u2019s time will<\/strong> come.<\/p>\n
