Kentucky Offers Son of Three-Time NBA All-Star Peja Stojakovic

A new Kentucky basketball target for 2023 emerged at the Adidas 3SSB stop in Spartanburg, S.C. this weekend.

Andrej Stojakovic, a wing in the 2023 class, picked up an offer from Kentucky late Saturday night, per his Compton Magic team.

There’s a reason that the last name sounds familiar to you. Stojakovic is the son of 13-year NBA veteran and 3-time all-star, Peja Stojakovic.

The four-star sharpshooter is currently the No. 82 player in the 247Sports Composite, but that ranking could climb to five-star status after consecutive impressive shows on the Adidas circuit this month.

The 6-foot-6, 185-pound wing is known for his ability to make shots but also excels at creating his own. He has great footwork cutting and moving away from the ball. Getting stronger and quicker will be areas he needs to improve, but he’s extremely talented and will put the ball in the basket.

In April alone, Stojakovic has added offers from Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Kansas, Florida, UConn,  Indiana, Washington State, USC, and Stanford.

John Calipari and Orlando Antigua were in Spartanburg Friday night to watch Stojakovic. The UK assistant stayed Saturday and Sunday to watch and didn’t miss a minute of the action.
