The Bluegrass Stallions are a basketball team in the American Basketball Association set to begin play in 2009-10. Based in Lexington, Kentucky, the Stallions will play at the currently under-construction indoor arena at the Kentucky Horse Park.
The Stallions' head coach will be Kyle Macy, a former Kentucky Wildcats college basketball player (where he was a three-time All-American) who later played for the Phoenix Suns, Chicago Bulls, and Indiana Pacers. After retiring, Macy would later be the head coach for Morehead State University's basketball team as well as general manager for the CBA's East Kentucky Miners and color commentator for Wildcats basketball telecasts.

The Bluegrass Stallions, Lexington’s new professional basketball team, announces their inaugural team roster. The team roster is as follows:
2 Ravi Moss 6’3 Guard Kentucky
3 Akeem Scott 6’3 Guard ABA
5 Aubrey White 6’3 Guard ABA; Georgetown College

“Coach Macy has put together a team of exceptional talent and will no doubt have a great winning record in our first season,” added Tony Chase, team owner.
