UPDATE: Detroit is the team that won’t participate in the Bluegrass Showcase due to positive COVID tests, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS and Stadium.

Kentucky basketball is scheduled to host a four team event at Rupp Arena this week to open the college basketball season.

For now, Kentucky is scheduled to play Morehead State Wednesday night at Rupp Arena.

When John Calipari met with the media Monday, every team was set and on track to play in the event. However, Matt Jones of Kentucky Sports Radio is hearing one team may have to cancel due to COVID.

The three teams scheduled for the event are Morehead State, Detroit, and Richmond.
