Keion Brooks will return to Kentucky basketball for sophomore season, his father says

Keion Brooks had some impact moments as a freshman for Kentucky, and he could be a key player for coach John Calipari's Wildcats next season.

Brooks will return to UK for his sophomore season in 2020-21, his father said in an interview with 247Sports.com published Monday night.

Brooks, a 6-foot-7 forward, will go through the NBA draft process to get offseason feedback from pro personnel, his father said, but Brooks plans to use that feedback as an indication of where he needs to improve as a sophomore.
