Five-star point guard Ashton Hagans is on his way to Lexington.
In news expected for months and confirmed by multiple media outlets Friday, the 6-foot-4 prospect from Covington, Ga., completed his high school coursework this week, allowing him to skip his senior year to enroll at the University of Kentucky and play for the Wildcats in the 2018-19 season.
Hagans, the nation's top-rated point guard in the class of 2019, committed to UK in April with plans to reclassify to 2018 if he could graduate in time.
Hagans earned Georgia player of the year honors as a junior this past high school season by putting up 20.
