New court coming soon

The center court piece from the original maple playing surface that was home to UK from 1976-2001 can still be seen on display in Rupp Arena, but other pieces of that court were sold to UK fans when it was dismantled 22 years ago. The second Rupp court is likely headed toward a similar fate. Sipe said his team has been in contact with multiple companies, including Fanatics, that would be able to cut up pieces of the court with the intent of selling them to fans. Those talks are ongoing, but Sipe said he hopes to have an announcement on how fans can purchase a wooden chunk of UK basketball history by the end of the calendar year. “Because of the prestige of the university’s program, I think a lot of fans would want to own a piece. So we’re trying to figure out the logistics of that.”
