Travis Perry, a four-star point guard in the 2024 class, has committed to John Calipari and the University of Kentucky. 

The 6-foot-2 senior guard from Eddyville (Ky.) Lyon County chose the in-state Wildcats over a final group of Alabama, Cincinnati, Ole Miss, and Western Kentucky.

“At the end of the day I decided to stay home and play for my home state school. Growing up I played for the West KY Wildcats and now I’m excited to join the Kentucky Wildcats.”

Perry, the all-time leading scorer in Kentucky high school history, is ranked as the No. 87 overall player in the nation, according to the On3 Industry Rankings – a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 1 ranked player in the state of Kentucky.

Perry Scouting Report

“Travis Perry is a heady lead guard who plays at a fast pace. He makes quick, decisive decisions on the ball. Perry has deep range on his jumper and he is able to find his balance and square his shoulders off the catch or off the bounce. He relies more on pace than he does quickness, he has average pop. Perry sees the floor well. There will be questions about his on-ball defense, but he gives good effort on that end. A prolific scorer.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
