Kentucky commit Jayden Quaintance expresses excitement about Kentucky ahead of McDonald’s All American game

Kentucky five-star commit Jayden Quaintance spoke ahead of the 2024 McDonald’s All American game on Monday, being one of three future Wildcats in the event.

Taking the podium alongside his future teammate Boogie Fland, Quaintance expressed excitement at coming to Lexington and what he believes he can provide head coach John Calipari.

“It’s going to be fun,” he said. “Kentucky kind of struggled on defense a little bit last year and I feel like defensively we kind of bring a lot of impact that way just being physical and both being shot blockers. Me being able to play passionately and play different positions, I think it’s going to be a fun experience for sure.
