Kentucky showing interest in rising guard AJ Johnson

The Kentucky Wildcats are expressing interest in one of the fastest-rising point guards in the nation.

AJ Johnson is currently ranked as a 4-star recruit and the No. 63 overall player in the 2023 class.

During the 2022 Pangos All-American Camp in Las Vegas this week, Johnson turned a lot of heads as he displayed excellent ball handling with an ability to beat defenders off the dribble with ease. He also showed an ability to knock down threes and find his teammates for open looks.

Johnson made a case for being not only a 5-star recruit, but one of the top players in the entire class.
