Jerone Morton out indefinitely with knee injury for Kentucky basketball

Kentucky basketball guard Jerone Morton is out indefinitely due to a knee injury sustained during practice. Head coach Mark Pope announced the injury during Media Day. Morton, who transferred from Washington State, is a key player for the Wildcats, bringing valuable experience to their backcourt. Freshman Mason Williams is expected to take on greater responsibilities in Morton's absence and provide significant minutes as the backup point guard. Morton will be reevaluated in several weeks.
