Kentucky forward Jarred Vanderbilt sustained an unspecified injury in practice on Tuesday and will not practice on Wednesday, a UK spokesman confirmed to The Cats' Pause.

Vanderbilt is day-to-day for the SEC Tournament.

Vanderbilt's injury could be devastating for Kentucky's NCAA Tournament run. The 6-foot-9 freshman is easily the team's best rebounder, posting an average of 7.9 rebounds per game. Though he struggled at times offensively, Vanderbilt averaged 9.5 points per game during the Wildcats' four-game winning streak.

For Vanderbilt, the injury could be even more alarming. The freshman sustained a foot injury in September that kept him out until January. He also injured his left foot twice in high school. Though this injury is unknown at this point, it could send more red flags to NBA teams that are potentially interested in drafting Vanderbilt.

The Wildcats play in the SEC quarterfinals in St. Louis on Friday afternoon.
