We now know which numbers the new Kentucky Wildcats will be rocking when the team takes the hardwood for the 2022-23 season.

There are four new additions to John Calipari’s squad. Antonio Reeves made the move from Illinois State to Kentucky as the Wildcats’ only transfer portal addition. Three freshmen — Cason Wallace, Chris Livingston and Adou Thiero — will join Reeves as the entire team makes their way to campus this week.

Once they arrive, the four new guys will get their practice gear featuring their new numbers. Take a look:

  • #3 Adou Thiero
  • #12 Antonio Reeves
  • #22 Cason Wallace
  • #24 Chris Livingston

A few noteworthy Wildcats that previously wore those numbers:

#3 — Rex Chapman, Ramel Bradley, Terrence Jones, Nerlens Noel, Tyler Ulis, Bam Adebayo, TyTy Washington

#12 — Ralph Beard, Deron Feldhaus, Brandon Knight, Karl-Anthony Towns, Brad Calipari, Keion Brooks

#22 — Jerry Bird, Mike Pratt, Patrick Sparks, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Alex Poythress, Reid Travis

#24 — Johnny Cox, Jamal Mashburn, Antoine Walker, Kalenna Azubuike, Eric Bledsoe

Players have new numbers, but will they be on new uniforms? We’ve heard that Kentucky is in the process of updating their jerseys for the upcoming season, yet we’re still waiting on the official word from UK and Nike.
