Jaland Lowe - College Basketball News & Rumors

Clearance still weeks away Lowe (shoulder) is still weeks away from being fully cleared for basketball-related activities, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact For the 2025-26 NCAA season, Lowe's shoulder injury affected him all year, as evidenced by his playing fewer than 10 games then. Though the injury is still a problem, at least he has much time before Georgetown's 2026-27 campaign begins. The team is banking on a bounce-back from Lowe, who once averaged more than 15.0 points and 5.0 rebounds for Pittsburgh.

Lands at Georgetown Lowe (shoulder) will transfer to Georgetown, per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Lowe transferred to Kentucky from Pitt ahead of the 2025-26 season, but a shoulder injury derailed his year and limited him to just nine games in a Wildcats' uniform. Now, the 6-foot-3 point guard will play for his third program in four years, although he should still have junior eligibility status next season given his extensive injury history in Lexington. In 2024-25 with Pitt, Lowe averaged 16.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.5 assists.

Impact Lowe was expected to be the Wildcats' starting point guard in 2025-26 after transferring from Pitt. However, he battled a shoulder injury back-and-fourth early in the season and ultimately underwent season-ending surgery in January. However, he's expected to make a full recovery and could potentially secure a medical redshirt for the 2025-26 campaign, preserving his eligibility. Either way, he looks poised to return at full strength in 2026-27.

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

Impact Lowe missed six of the Wildcats first eight games, but appeared to be on the right track in recent weeks, having sat out just one of the last eight games. 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.

Impact Lowe only played three minutes in the Wildcats' win over Mississippi State on Saturday before injuring his shoulder. The junior guard notched his second start in a row, but is now a question mark for Kentucky's next game against LSU. Lowe has already missed seven games this season and has been in and out of the lineup; if head coach Mark Pope and company have to prepare for another game without him, it'll be nothing new.

Impact This is not the first time Lowe suffers a shoulder injury this season, and it's unclear how Kentucky will proceed with the star point guard. Head coach Mark Pope said all options are on the table when it comes to Lowe's recovery, according to Pharis. "All options are on the table... It could be no games, it could be a few games, it could be all the games. You want to protect their future, but you don't want to steal their present."

Starts, scores nine Lowe amassed nine points (2-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 73-68 loss to Missouri.

Impact As expected, Lowe moved into the starting lineup. He struggled from the field against the Tigers after scoring 21 points in the loss to Alabama on Saturday. The Pitt transfer has not topped three assists since returning from a shoulder injury. He may need to concentrate on setting up his teammates because his 3-point shot is not going down (20.8 percent). The Wildcats will go for their first SEC win on Saturday against Mississippi State.

Scores season-high 21 Lowe contributed a season-high 21 points (8-16 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 27 minutes during Saturday's 89-74 loss to Alabama...

Impact Lowe has scored in double digits in three straight games, but his scoring exploits weren't enough to push the Wildcats to their fourth straight win. The Pitt transfer has not topped three assists in his last five games after opening his season with a pair of five-assist games. The 6-1 junior will face Missouri on Wednesday.

JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Set to face Alabama Lowe (shoulder) will be available for Kentucky's Jan. 3 game against Alabama, Wyatt Huff of SI.com reports.

Impact Head coach Mark Pope said that Lowe's absence against Bellarmine was more for rest purposes, offering the guard a few extra days to heal from a nagging shoulder injury. Pope followed up by saying he expects Lowe to play in every game, which means maintenance days won't be a regular occurrence for the talented point guard. Lowe is averaging 7.0 points, 3.0 assists and 2.0 rebounds across 18.2 minutes per game this season.
