Top-40 Senior Billy Richmond Commits to Kentucky

Richmond joins a strong 2024 recruiting class, marking the fifth ESPN 100 prospect for Kentucky.

Billy Richmond, a top-40 senior and a powerful athlete with speed and quickness, has committed to Kentucky, giving John Calipari his fifth ESPN 100 prospect in the 2024 class.
Richmond chose the Wildcats over Memphis, Alabama, and LSU, citing family ties and comfort with the campus and play style.
Richmond's father, who played two seasons at Memphis under Calipari, was a significant factor in his decision.
Richmond is a 6-foot-6 small forward from Camden High School (New Jersey), and he took a big jump in the spring and summer after his junior season.
At Kentucky, Richmond joins a five-man 2024 recruiting class that includes five-star prospects Jayden Quaintance and Boogie Fland, as well as four-star ESPN 100 recruits Somto Cyril and Travis Perry.
