At the recent Nike EYBL stop outside Atlanta, Johnson said Kentucky was his “dream school.”
“Yeah, I like Kentucky a lot,” he told reporters “That’s been my dream school growing up. Coach Cal, it’s meant a lot him coming to my school three times this year, so just to show that I’m a priority for them, they really want me, it means a lot.”

Duke’s entire staff also visited Johnson on April 22, and they remain heavily in the mix as well.
