VJ King could be looking at a great season to burst onto the college basketball scene in 2018-19 for the Louisville Cardinals.
A former All-American, King had high expectations during his first season. King’s freshman year had flashes of brilliance, but a lot of head scratching plays, as well as fighting for playing time, left him with just 13 minutes of playing time off of the bench.
The departure of Donovan Mitchell opened a starting spot for King in his second year under Associate Head Coach David Padgett. King did just that, starting all but one game for the Cards.
