Keyshawn Hall drawing interest from Kentucky Basketball

AUBURN, ALABAMA - FEBRUARY 21: Keyshawn Hall #7 of Auburn Tigers dribbles the ball during the second half against the Kentucky Wildcats at Neville Arena on February 21, 2026 in Auburn, Alabama. (Photo by Stew Milne/Getty Images) | Getty Images In the midst of the chaos in this August transfer portal for college basketball, Kentucky Basketball has been linked to a name they faced off against last season: Keyshawn Hall.

class="wp-block-paragraph">Hall last played for the Auburn Tigers, which was his fourth college in four years. He had stops at UNLV, George Mason, and UCF before landing on the plains last offseason. His time at Auburn shows a player who would make sense for Kentucky to get as the 15th player to round out this team.

class="wp-block-paragraph">As a Tiger, he averaged 19.3 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game, while shooting 45% from the field, 38% from 3-point range, and 86% from the line. In his matchup against Kentucky last season, Hall had only 10 points on an inefficient night.

class="wp-block-paragraph">The Wildcats have pursued a few different names to this point, but they all seem to be in the forward role, and Hall is the next name added to that list. Kentucky has been added to a growing list of teams already in talks with or showing interest in Hall. If not Kentucky, then the Cats have a chance of facing off against him once the season comes around, with three of the schools showing interest being on next year’s schedule.

Below are some highlights of Keyshawn Hall!
