Mark Pope is set to be one player lighter. Pope’s Kentucky Wildcats went into the offseason hoping to add stars, but instead appear to be down a player, with guard Jaland Lowe set to depart.
According to a Monday report by Joe Tipton, Lowe has committed to Georgetown.
“Kentucky transfer guard Jaland Lowe has committed to Georgetown, he told On3,” Tipton posted on x.
Fans reacted to the news. Many fans called out the situation, cracking jokes and casting doubts.
“If ya can’t beat em, Join em right,” one fan posted.
“Rip bros career 🙏🙏🙏,” another posted.
“Shame his shoulder injury,” one added.
Other fans reacted with upbeat notes and positivity.
“Praying for health, hoping for success. Thank you for trying so hard to play through injury for UK,” one posted.
“He’ll ball out over there,” another added.
“Best of luck brother!” one replied.
Lowe will have to shrug off an injury that derailed his season as time continues to tick on his eligibility window.

The guard from Kentucky will look to put his 2025-26 season into perspective with a breakout season for the Georgetown Hoyas. Lowe logged just two starts for Kentucky in 2025 after two straight seasons of at least 30 games.
His 2024 season continues to stand out as his best, with an average of 16.8 points per game. In his brief 2025 season, he averaged eight points per game, setting up a clear goal for the guard in the 2026-27 season to score as much as possible.
Entering his fourth season, his NCAA window won’t be open forever, which means now is the time to stack a case if he wants any shot at the NBA.
