Isaac Humphries commits to Kentucky
Calipari:
To have a 7-footer who just turned 17, he has a lot still in front of him, and the best part is he wants the challenge of playing at UK.
Kentucky Basketball:
The reports are true. We've added a big piece to this year's team.
Already loaded with one of the best recruiting classes in the country, the Kentucky men's basketball team has bolstered its 2015-16 frontline with the addition of Australian big man Isaac Humphries. UK head coach John Calipari announced the signing on Thursday.Full story
"I watched Isaac when he first came over to the United States in high school in Indiana and was impressed with his skill and size," Calipari said. “He reminded me of a much bigger Josh Harrellson. He’s very skilled, has great hands and is a great passer. To have a 7-footer who just turned 17, he has a lot still in front of him, and the best part is he wants the challenge of playing at Kentucky.”
A 7-footer from Australia, Humphries was originally a member of the 2016 class before just recently reclassifying to 2015. As a member of the 2016 class, he was rated a top-50 prospect by most major recruiting services.
