Set for season-ending surgery Lowe will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, per Jack Pilgrim of Kentucky Sports Radio.

However, he banged up his shoulder against Mississippi State, throwing his status back into question. Now, it's official: the guard will undergo a season-ending operation on his shoulder. The Pitt transfer appeared primed to thrive in Lexington, but Lowe will have to wait until the 2026-27 season to contribute.
