Close ties may give Kentucky an edge with Tre Johnson

This summer, John Calipari has been noticeably rejuvenated and adapted his recruiting strategy by expressing interest sooner. One of the recruits that Kentucky has placed a priority on in the 2024 class is Tre Johnson.

Standing 6-foot-5, 180-pounds, Johnson is ranked as a top-three recruit and is arguably the best shooter in the class. However, Johnson didn’t rely solely on his perimeter shooting, as he is also comfortable utilizing his mid-range game.

With the shooting skills that Johnson possesses and the value that is placed on shooting in today’s style of basketball, it’s no secret why he is such a coveted recruit, holding offers from the Baylor Bears, Arkansas Razorbacks, Kansas Jayhawks, and the Kentucky Wildcats among others.
