Kentucky freshman center Malachi Moreno has pulled out of next month’s NBA draft and will return to the Wildcats for another year.
Moreno had entered the draft process as a projected second-round pick, but his decision keeps him in Lexington as Kentucky continues shaping its roster for the upcoming season.
The move gives the Wildcats another returning frontcourt piece, with Moreno opting to continue his college career rather than remain in the draft pool.
