In a major recruiting win for the Kentucky Wildcats, a highly coveted five-star guard has officially committed to play in Lexington, choosing John Calipari’s program over strong offers from SEC rivals Tennessee and Georgia.
The 6-foot-4 standout, known for his elite scoring ability, quick first step, and lockdown defense, made his decision public via a social media announcement on Saturday afternoon. The commitment marks a significant boost for Kentucky’s 2025 recruiting class, already considered one of the top in the nation.
“I felt at home at Kentucky,” the guard said in a brief statement. “Coach Calipari’s vision for me, the history of the program, and the chance to compete at the highest level all played a role in my decision.”
Tennessee and Georgia had been in hot pursuit, with both schools making multiple visits and pitches in recent months. Tennessee offered a strong development plan and local appeal, while Georgia made a compelling case for being the centerpiece of a rising program. However, the allure of Kentucky’s national exposure, passionate fan base, and proven NBA pipeline ultimately sealed the deal.
The Wildcats are expected to feature a dynamic backcourt next season, and this latest commitment could push them back into championship contention. As Kentucky fans celebrate, recruiting experts are already calling this decision one of the biggest headlines of the offseason.
