According to KSR’s Jacob Polacheck , kentucky is expected to be involved with Hunter once he officially enters the portal next week.
Hunter has had a unique college basketball career. He played his first three seasons at Central Arkansas before transferring to Wisconsin for the 2024-25 season after missing the 2023-24 campaign while redshirting due to a foot injury. Even though Hunter averaged less than half a point per game with the Badgers, he still got a taste of Power Four-level basketball.
This past season back at Central Arkansas, Hunter averaged 21 points per game this season, shooting nearly 37 percent from 3-point range. He’s actively pursuing an additional year of eligibility and will also consider a return to Central Arkansas. Because he only appeared in 11 games at Wisconsin following his injury the previous year, it seems like that’s his claim for getting what would be a sixth year of eligibility.
