The Kentucky Wildcats have welcomed their first commitment from the transfer portal by signing Zoom Diallo, a former point guard from the University of Washington. Diallo announced his decision on Wednesday after visiting Kentucky over the weekend. Standing at 6 feet 3 inches, he had an impressive season, averaging 15.7 points per game while shooting 48.9% from the field, alongside 3.9 rebounds and 4.5 assists. During his freshman year, Diallo played in all 31 games, starting 22, and averaged 11.1 points per game. He gained recognition as Washington's Gatorade Player of the Year during his junior year at Curtis Senior High School, where he averaged 20.2 points. Diallo's successful high school career included accolades such as McDonald's All-American honors and participation in the Nike Hoops Summit. Although Kentucky showed interest during Coach John Calipari's tenure without making a formal offer, they have now secured him, positioning Diallo to likely become the starting point guard for the Wildcats next season.
