Illinois State transfer Antonio Reeves, one of the best scorers in the portal, committed to Kentucky on Wednesday.
Reeves chose the Wildcats over a final five that included Nebraska, Xavier, Oregon and DePaul.
“I feel my college experience and work habits will have me ready for Kentucky,” Reeves told ESPN. “I realize we are everyone’s big game. At Illinois State, I was one of the leaders and I feel I can lead at Kentucky. I understand the workload, practice, film work and can help explain it to the younger guys.”
Reeves visited Kentucky this month, and coach John Calipari made a clear impression on the 6-foot-6 shooting guard.
