Kentucky has added another guard to the roster - Wildcats Today Skip to main content

Kentucky has added another in-state prospect to join Travis Perry on the upcoming 2024-25 roster. According to a report from CBS Sports’ Matt Norlander, 2024 four-star forward Trent Noah has committed to Kentucky.

Noah decommitted from South Carolina earlier this week, where he put out a statement including that he got his NLI taken care of “with hopes of pursuing basketball opportunities closer to home.” Now, the in-state prospect is living out that hope.

The Harlan County native is ranked as a Top-5 scorer all-time in the state of Kentucky, and will be joining the state's all-time leading scorer, Travis Perry.

Mark Pope said he wants to recruit the top players in the state of Kentucky, and he's doing that so far.

Adam Finkelstein of 247Sports had this to say about the Kentucky Wildcats most recent addition to the 2024-25 roster, "Trent Noah is a strong-bodied wing and elite shooter of the basketball. His game is based on the three-point line. He's not only one of the best in the class when it comes to making spot-up shots, and thus providing gravity as a floor-spacer, but also capable of making shots on the move. He's a heady offensive player and good passer who knows how to play within offensive structure. Noah has a strong and fairly broad frame, which can allow him to defend some bigger players. He is also a solid wing rebounder. He needs to continue to work on his defensive quickness and his ability to create his own offense."
