Kentucky forward Keion Brooks Jr. will return to Kentucky for his sophomore season, his father confirmed to CatsPause.com Monday.
Brooks closed the 2019-20 season on a positive note with a 10 point performance in Kentucky’s 71-70 win vs. the Gators in Gainesville.
There’s a good chance when the all the dust settles from Kentucky’s NBA Draft decisions that Brooks will be the only returning player from the Wildcats eight man rotation last season. He will join Dontaie Allen, who redshirted last season while recovering from an ACL injury.
While Brooks might be the only Wildcat with experience returning, Kentucky has another stellar class on the way to Lexington. One of the future stars is glad Brooks is returning to Kentucky.
Five-star guard BJ Boston approves of Brooks’ decision.
