E.J. Montgomery is no stranger to being surrounded by elite talent. In high school while playing at Montverde Academy he was teammates with Ben Simmons.
But it was Anthony Davis that Montgomery grew up idolizing. So much in fact, that he is going wear #23 this season in tribute of Davis.
In a great segment on CoachCal.com you can watch a video of Davis giving advice to Montgomery about what it is like to play at the University of Kentucky.
“It’s not easy, it’s not easy to win here. You know…. fans are loyal, great fan base.
