Kentucky had its home visit on Monday with James Wiseman, the No. 1 player in the Class of 2019.
The 7-foot Wiseman is being heavily courted by both Kentucky and Memphis, where his former high school coach, Penny Hardaway, is now the head coach. Memphis offered Wiseman on April 7, his birthday.

Wiseman said he models his game after former Kentucky big man Anthony Davis because of “how he runs the floor and makes himself available.”
“He’s long, athletic, he can block shots,” Chandler Lawson, Wiseman’s teammate, told NewsPress.com. “He’s a leader. He’s a big advantage for us. But we can’t take anything for granted. We’re playing the best, so we have to do whatever we can to get better.”
