LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Kentucky Wildcats received a significant lift from Iowa State transfer Milan Momcilovic in his season debut against the Manhattan Jaspers at Rupp Arena on November 3, 2026. Momcilovic, wearing No. 22, contributed immediately as Kentucky opened its campaign with a home victory.

The 6-foot-8 forward, who sat out last season due to NCAA transfer rules, showcased his versatility on both ends of the floor. His presence adds depth to a Wildcats roster aiming for a deep postseason run.

Photographer Justin Casterline captured Momcilovic's first moments in a Kentucky uniform during the second half of the contest. The game marked the program's first regular-season action of the 2026-27 season.
