According to a report from Jack Pilgrim of Kentucky Sports Radio, Jayden Quaintance could be nearing a return for Kentucky THIS season.
According to Pilgrim, Quaintance has a strength test coming up on his knee that could lead to a return ahead of postseason play if all goes well.
Here is an excerpt:
Going into the final week of the regular season, though, Quaintance could be on the cusp of good news that would potentially put him back on the floor in time for Kentucky’s postseason run, sources tell KSR.
The 6-10, 255-pound forward has a strength test in the coming days that could get him cleared with his swelling under control and growing optimism surrounding his status. The training staff has gotten his knee to a good place and they have some backup options to try that could help expedite his return. While there are still significant benchmarks left to clear, there is a push for the potential lottery pick to suit up in the NCAA Tournament.
