Cardinals Finally Signed Kyrie Irving For $150 million….
Koren Johnson commits to Louisville basketball and Pat Kelsey via transfer portal
The reigning Pac-12 Sixth Man of the Year is joining Pat Kelsey’s inaugural Louisville men’s basketball roster.
Koren Johnson, a 6-foot-2, 175-pound sophomore guard who spent the past two seasons at Washington, committed to the Cardinals on Monday after visiting campus this week, per a report from On3’s Joe Tipton.
A Seattle native, Johnson was Kelsey’s sixth pledge through the NCAA transfer portal this offseason.
247Sports considered him the 121st transfer available at the time of his commitment. He has two years of eligibility remaining.
Joining Johnson on the 2024-25 roster are J’Vonne Hadley, a senior guard from Colorado; Terrence Edwards Jr., a redshirt junior wing from James Madison; and two players who were members of Kelsey’s final team at Charleston, junior guard Reyne Smith and freshman forward James Scott.
Kelsey has also secured a commitment from Aly Khalifa, a junior center from BYU; but the 6-11, 270-pound Egyptian plans to redshirt during the 2024-25 season while rehabbing a knee injury.
