Great news for the Kentucky Wildcats as Twitter Cheers for Jaland Lowe’s Commitment

As Mark Pope and his staff prepare for their second season in Lexington, they’re focused on building a new roster for the 2025-26 campaign.

Pope secured another key addition to the team on Saturday morning with the commitment of Pitt Panthers point guard Jaland Lowe to the Kentucky Wildcats.

Lowe, who spent the last two seasons at Pitt, wrapped up the 2024-25 season with impressive averages of 16.8 points, 5.5 assists, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.8 steals per game.

An important aspect of Lowe’s game is his consistency—he started every game for the Panthers last season, demonstrating the durability that Kentucky could certainly benefit from.

Lowe earned third-team All-ACC honors this past season and is ranked as the 20th-best player in the transfer portal for this cycle by 247 Sports.

This is a major win for Pope and his staff. Lowe joins Kam Williams (Tulane) as the latest additions to the Wildcats roster.

Here’s a look at what Twitter had to say:
