LEXINGTON, Ky. — As expected, Cason Wallace’s first season as a Kentucky Wildcat will be his last.
Wallace — a 6-foot-4 guard from Dallas — has declared for the 2023 NBA draft and intends to keep his name in the pool, foregoing his final three years of college basketball eligibility.
“This season was fun. It had its ups and downs but the best part was having my brothers with me. We stuck through it and saw it through,” Wallace said in a statement Saturday morning. “When NCAA Tournament time came, I wanted to give everything I had. That was my last game unfortunately, but I went down swinging. Coach (John) Calipari was always there for us; when we lost, he took the blame. He taught me that it was a privilege to play the game.
