It’s been one month since five-star point guard Tyrese Maxey announced his commitment to the University of Kentucky, and things couldn’t be going much better for the future Wildcat.

One of the top players on the Nike circuit and the subject of continuous praise from national recruiting analysts, Maxey was also named this week to the USA Basketball U18 team, which will begin play Sunday night in the FIBA Americas tournament in Canada.

It’s been a pretty good spring for the Texas native, and it started with that UK pledge.

“I feel very relieved,” he said of his life as a Wildcats commitment. “Just being relieved and having the stress over — I played great. So it feels really good.

“I knew that’s where I wanted to be. I didn’t want to waste any other college coaches’ time. I know their job is very hard, and I didn’t want them to stay stuck with me even though I knew where I wanted to go. … I was peace with the decision, and I told my family I wanted to do it. And we’re here now.”
