Keion Brooks Jr. gave all he had to the University of Kentucky during his three years in Lexington, even if his time was never fully appreciated.
The 6-foot-7 forward experienced more unusual circumstances during his stint with UK than most Wildcats throughout history can claim — COVID-19 robbed him of a possible NCAA Tournament run as a freshman and then it cost him a regular sophomore season, one that saw Kentucky win just nine games. Brooks began to break through as a junior, but Kentucky just happened to lose in the first round of the postseason.
