Louisville basketball fans have been clamoring for a first look at Pat Kelsey‘s 2025-26 team since the Cardinals arrived on campus for the start of summer workouts.

The featured players: Mouhamed Camara, Ryan Conwell, J’Vonne Hadley, Isaac McKneely, Kobe Rodgers, Khani Rooths Adrian Wooley and Evangelos “Vangelis” Zougris.
