KD Johnson's mother reportedly reveals date for her son's transfer announcement
Georgia freshman KD Johnson had to wait a while for NCAA issues to clear up before he was allowed to play last season.
But, when he did play, he had moments of brilliance, showing a knack for hitting big shots and making important plays.
However, like many key Bulldogs this offseason, he has entered the NCAA transfer portal and will explore his options moving forward. And, it seems we’ll only have to wait a couple more days for his decision.
Per college basketball insider Jon Rothstein, Johnson’s mother said her son will announce his decision on Wednesday:
Georgia transfer KD Johnson will announce his decision on Wednesday, per his mother. Averaged 13.5 PPG last season.

Johnson appeared in 16 games last season, coming off the bench in all of them. He averaged 13.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.2 assists per contest.
Where will he end up playing this next season? We’ll find out before the end of the week, it seems!
Well, there’s a headline ya don’t see every day.
He’s Auburn bound.
That would be a nice pickup, but would slam the door on Scoot’s announcement on Friday. I don’t see Pearl doing that to him even if he chooses the G-League.
Scoot has most likely already told Pearl that he’s going to the g league. I think at this point it’s a done deal. I’d much rather have Scoot, but Johnson could easily develop into an NBA prospect. He’s got a very high ceiling. Looks like he’ll be the cherry on top to the 2021 roster.
Negan must be talking to the basketball players now.
