Kentucky assistant coach Orlando Antigua couldn’t even get through a game out in Phoenix for Nike EYBL Session II before texting Dennis Johnson, father of Woodford County standout Jasper Johnson.
“Man, we need to get you guys in our office next week,” Antigua told him.
The former Kentucky football standout called Antigua to open the week and scheduled a visit on Friday — Oaks Day. Johnson brought his son, a top-25 prospect in the class of 2025, and his wife to the basketball facilities where the program’s top assistant was waiting with John Calipari.
