UK Coach John Calipari said Thursday that he expects the games Saturday to generate more than $300,000 in donations to charities.
That number could be as high as double, he said.
The charity games in Rupp Arena will feature an intra-squad game of former UK players, plus a competition between UK’s 1996 championship team against participants in Calipari’s Fantasy Camp.
