Kam Williams returns to basketball workouts for Kentucky without a walking boot
Summary

Kentucky forward Kam Williams has returned to team workouts without a walking boot. Williams, who underwent a second foot surgery during the offseason, had been sidelined while recovering from the procedure. The forward previously broke his foot during the 2025-26 season but managed a return for the postseason before requiring the additional operation. His participation in recent team activity signals progress for the Kentucky roster as Mark Pope prepares for the 2026-27 season. Coaches look to integrate Williams into the lineup as the team seeks to address ongoing personnel questions at the power forward position. The workout footage released by the UK Sports Network on September 3 shows Williams moving on the field with his teammates.
