The Harrisons' decisions put Kentucky is an extremely good position to get back to the NCAA championship game, which they lost to UConn this month. Pro prospects Willie Cauley-Stein, Dakari Johnson, Alex Poythress and Marcus Lee also are returning for the 2014-15 season.

The news was earlier reported by Yahoo! Sports.

Aaron averaged 13.7 points last season, and hit a bunch of clutch shots in the NCAA tournament for the Wildcats. Andrew struggled to run the team for much of the season, but improved his floor game and finished the season averaging 10.9 points. He had 159 assists and 109 turnovers.
