Kentucky Wildcats freshman guard Keldon Johnson will enter the 2019 NBA draft, according to Kentucky Basketball.
Johnson also released a statement Wednesday regarding his decision to turn pro:
"I've spent a lot of time over the last week thinking about what's best for me and my future. I've sat down with my family and Coach Cal and determined that testing the waters and getting information back from the NBA is the best thing for me at this time. My hope is to be a lottery pick. If I am, I plan on pursuing my dreams and staying in the draft, but I want to go through the process first and get the correct information.
