Alex Wilkins was the second portal pick. The 6'5 guard from Furman led the Paladins in scoring with 17.8 per game and assists, dishing 4.7 a game. He committed on April 18.
Mason Williams is a four-star prospect coming out of high school, committing to Mark Pope in March and officially signing on April 20. He's the son of newly appointed assistant coach and former NBA Champion Mo Williams.
Zyon Hawthorne is the 6'2" younger brother of Braydon Hawthorne. He played at Huntington Prep in West Virginia, holding offers from Wichita State, La Salle, Arkansas State, and Bethune-Cookman.
Kentucky still looks to add another big man to the front court to go alongside Moreno if he chooses to return to the Wildcats.
