The Curious Case of E.J. Montgomery (and other names)

So, what happened?

Before we get to Montgomery’s recruitment let’s do a refresher. Montgomery is a five-star forward from Marietta, Ga. He played for Wheeler High School (where former UK target Jaylen Brown played) and it’s just outside of Atlanta. He’s 6-foot-10, 215-pounds and a forward that does a little bit of everything. He’s not a bruiser on the block but he has a nice touch around the rim. He wouldn’t be an elite stretch four, but he can knockdown open shots from outside. He’s not an elite defender but he can block shots and he isn’t easily pushed around.
