Overview
- Momcilovic announced his commitment to Kentucky on Monday through a social‑media post after a weeks‑long recruitment that included Louisville, Arizona and St. John’s.
- He preserved college eligibility by withdrawing from the 2026 NBA Draft before the May 27 deadline and then entered the transfer portal to seek a new team.
- Last season at Iowa State he averaged 16.9 points per game, led Division I with 136 made 3‑pointers and shot about 48.7 percent from long range.
- Multiple outlets report his NIL deal with Kentucky is in the neighborhood of $6 million, a financial package that played a major role in the final recruiting race.
- The addition, ranked among the top 1–3 portal players this cycle, gives Mark Pope a season‑altering shooter, lifts Kentucky’s preseason outlook and could affect Momcilovic’s future NBA draft stock next year.
