Kentucky's Jemarl Baker is the newest name in the NCAA's transfer portal. Friend of the program Evan Daniels broke the news via Twitter on Wednesday. Baker made big plays late in the year during the tournament run, but with Ashton Hagans and Immanuel Quickley coming back, plus incoming five-star guard Tyrese Maxey, it's easy to understand why he would consider other options for his redshirt sophomore season. Baker averaged 2.3 points in 9.1 minutes per game in 2018-19, while shooting 31.0% from outside, which ranked fifth on the team. Good luck to Jemarl wherever he ends up. My guess is it's somewhere out west so he can be closer to home.
