Sacha Killeya-Jones on why he picked Kentucky

Well that was certainly a fun way to start the day. 2016 power forward Sacha Killeya-Jones committed to the Cats this morning, and told ESPN’s Paul Biancardi the chance to play for John Calipari was why.

“I look at what Coach Calipari has done with players like myself, and I see the way he prepares them for the next level and it’s impressive,” Killeya-Jones said. “He is a really genuine person who is a demanding coach. I felt very comfortable with him and [I] trust him.”

Killeya-Jones went through a major growth spurt the past few years, going from 6’0″ his freshman year to 6’11” this summer.
