Breaking News: Andrej Stojaković Commits to Kentucky Wildcats
In a major development for college basketball, Andrej Stojaković, the highly sought-after transfer and son of former NBA All-Star Peja Stojaković, has officially committed to join the Kentucky Wildcats for the upcoming season. The 6-foot-7 forward was one of the top players available in the transfer portal, drawing attention from several powerhouse programs across the country. Kentucky has now secured one of the most talented wings in college basketball.
Stojaković began his collegiate career at Stanford before transferring to California, where he had a breakout season. At Cal, he averaged 17.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game, showcasing his scoring versatility, high basketball IQ, and strong shooting from beyond the arc. His ability to create his own shot and defend multiple positions made him a top target for several elite programs.
After entering the transfer portal again this spring with a “do not contact” tag—often a sign that a player already knows where they’re headed—speculation swirled that Kentucky was his likely destination. That speculation has now been confirmed, adding a major boost to the Wildcats’ 2025 roster.
This move signals a fresh chapter for Kentucky under new leadership, as the program looks to bounce back from recent postseason disappointments. Stojaković’s experience, combined with his talent and legacy pedigree, makes him an immediate impact player and a likely centerpiece of Kentucky’s offensive scheme.
With Stojaković’s commitment, Kentucky has made a powerful statement in the transfer portal era. The addition of a proven scorer and floor-spacer adds balance and leadership to the Wildcats, and fans can now look forward to a revitalized squad with serious March Madness potential. This is a big win for Big Blue Nation.
