LEXINGTON – John Calipari sees plenty of reason for Kentucky fans to be excited about the two most recent additions to his 2019-20 roster.

The Kentucky coach released his first public comments Thursday about 2019 high school commitment Keion Brooks and Bucknell graduate transfer Nate Sestina as UK confirmed their commitments on the second day of the spring signing period.

"Keion is such a unique player because he has guard play-making ability in a 6-7, physical frame," Calipari said of the five-star recruit from the La Lumiere School in Indiana.
