Next, Vargas decided to sign with the University of Kentucky where he received limited minutes playing behind Josh Harrelson last year and Anthony Davis this year. Now, Vegas is preparing to play on the Dominican National team this summer where he will be coached by John Calipari and will play alongside Al Horford and Jack Michael Martinez.
