Johnny Juzang Says He Can’t Just ‘Shoot out of Slumps’ Anymore

In high school, minutes were never in short supply for Johnny Juzang. The current Kentucky freshman was a varsity starter for all three years he spent playing at the pre-college level. He reclassified to the class of 2019 so he could skip his senior season in favor of signing with the Wildcats.

Despite the fact that Juzang should be a high school senior right now playing back at Harvard-Westlake, he’s still appeared in all 10 of Kentucky’s games this season. But the minutes haven’t been as copious as they once were.

The 18-year old is playing in fewer than 12 minutes per game and has struggled to find his shooting stroke as a result.
