Washington State guard Jerone Morton has signed with Kentucky, his father tells KSR. He took an official visit to UK over the weekend. Morton is a native of Winchester, Kentucky, and won a state championship with George Rogers Clark in 2022 as tournament MVP. He has one year of college eligibility remaining. “All along the trip, they let us know that they want us to be there,” Morton’s father, Derrick, told KSR+ . “He told Jerone that, most likely, he’s going to be a backup guy. Jerone asked him what he sees his role being on the team. That’s what he told him, that he would be a backup person.
