Milan Momcilovic to Reach Kentucky on June 6 After Shooting 48.7% From 3

June 6 is the expected arrival date for Milan Momcilovic at Kentucky, with the former Iowa State forward set to reach Lexington early Saturday afternoon.
Monday’s signing followed his withdrawal from the NBA Draft last week, ending a quick recruitment in which he chose Kentucky over Louisville and Arizona.
48.7% from three on 7.5 attempts made Momcilovic college basketball’s most accurate high-volume long-range shooter last season, and he also averaged 16.9 points to earn All-Big 12 Second Team honors.
One year of eligibility remains for the 6-foot-8 forward, though a proposed 5-in-5 rule could give him as many as two more seasons and further boost Kentucky’s 2026-27 SEC outlook.
