Juzang averaged 23 points, 8.5 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game in high school. He shot over 43 percent from 3-point range, too. We’re not sure how much of an immediate impact he’ll make in 2019, but he certainly adds to a deep roster and recruiting class.

Calipari also offered a statement about his newest signee.

“Johnny can really score the basketball,” UK head coach John Calipari said. “You’re talking about a kid who has a college-ready body, which is why I was in full support of him reclassifying. When he told us he was doing it, I said let’s do this. He can really shoot the basketball and has a great skill set, but what I love about him is his will to win, his fight and competitiveness. He likes to play physical and can shoot over the top of defenders, plus he’s a very good rebounder for his age. He’s a smart player who is really going to make us a different team next year.”

The Cats have the nation’s best recruiting class, according to 247Sports Composite Rankings.
