Knowing that NBA star Anthony Davis is his hero, Calipari told Montgomery he could see similarities in their skills. When Duke, once the favorite to land him, signed three of the nation’s top five players and four McDonald’s All-Americans, Calipari told Montgomery there wasn’t anyone on Kentucky’s 2018-19 roster like him.
The Wildcats weren’t looking for just another face in the crowd, their Hall of Fame coach said, they needed a difference-maker.
“It struck me,” Montgomery remembers, “because I’ve heard about how he recruited and maybe I thought that was how he was going to come at me. But he didn’t. It was a different approach, and it stuck with me.”
