Aaron Gordon brings a mature approach to his game and is analytical when breaking down his options of Kentucky, Arizona and Washington.

"Let's start with Kentucky," said Gordon. "It's a winning organization. Coach (John) Calipari is a winner. It's a true basketball program. The Wildcat Launch is right across the street from the gym. You can go in there 24 hours a day. There's a curfew. It's almost like a business. If you really want to play basketball, that's the place to go.

"Arizona is a shooting program and coach (Sean) Miller is a really good shooting coach. They are losing two of their really good seniors, Kevin Parrom and Solomon Hill. It's a great place to go to school. I'd be happy there if I were to go there. Miller is a really great coach.

"Obviously (Lorenzo) Romar is a really great coach also at Washington. They have a really good offense – it's a 1-4 high, almost like a John Wooden offense. They look to push in the first eight seconds. It's up-tempo but also very structured. It's also very basketball oriented."

Gordon is applying the recruiting lessons learned by his older siblings Drew and Elisabeth to his own process.

"Drew made a poor decision his first time around and great one the second time," he said. "My sister made a good one to Harvard. I've been able to see the dos and don'ts of the recruiting process and it's allowed me to really open my eyes to a lot of things.

"Ultimately, it's my decision and nobody else's." 

Aaron Gordon has reduced his list of schools to Arizona, Washington and Kentucky.

It has been widely believed that Gordon would remain on the West Coast with one of the Pac-12 schools, but Kentucky has become more of a factor.

Gordon had 27 points in 32 minutes in Mitty's 81-46 loss on Monday to Lone Peak.

Willie Cauley-Stein aggravated an old injury to his left knee and underwent a minor procedure on Thursday.

John Calipari said the Wildcats training staff could have put a knee sleeve on Cauley-Stein’s knee and let him play.

“But as you know,” Calipari said, “that’s now how we operate here. If I err, I’m going to err on the side of the kid. Let’s just be safe.”

Calipari confirmed that the injury has bothered Cauley-Stein at times this season.

“We have been dealing with Willie (for awhile),” Calipari said. “Again, it was an injury – I hate to tell you – since junior high school. For the last couple of weeks (it has bothered him). So, it just happened to where, alright, let’s go, let’s see (what’s wrong).”

Tyus Jones will take an unofficial visit to Kentucky this weekend.

Jones, a 6-foot-1 point guard who plays at Apple Valley High School in Minnesota, is considered the top player in the 2014 class.

Apple Valley coach Zach Goring compares Jones’ playing style to Chris Paul and Tony Parker.

“The way he can totally control a game — and not even by scoring,” he said. “His basketball IQ is through the roof. We run a lot of screen-and-roll action and he understands where to go on that sort of stuff.”

Dakari Johnson committed to Kentucky on Saturday.

Johnson, the No. 1 center in the 2013 incoming class, chose Kentucky over Syracuse and Georgetown.

"I just want to win a national championship," Johnson said. "I want to win a high school championship, then a college championship and hopefully an NBA championship.

"(The coaching staff) told me this was not the place to come if I didn't want to work hard," he added. "But I want to work hard and I want to get pushed. And I think Kentucky is the place for me."

Johnson made his decision after No. 1 Montverde defeated Simeon by a final score of 82-53.

Johnson reclassified from 2014 to 2013 in November.

Dakari Johnson will announce his college commitment on Saturday evening.

Johnson is the top-ranked center in the class of 2013.

Johnson is expected to choose between Kentucky, Georgetown and Syracuse.

Johnson is choosing between the same final three schools as Nerlens Noel last spring.

Kentucky's John Calipari and Orlando Antigua will be in attendance for the Cancer Research Classic in Wheeling, West Virginia on Friday.

They will be there to watch Andrew Wiggins and Emmanuel Mudiay of Huntington Prep.

Kentucky head coach John Calipari has every member of his team practicing with a body monitoring device that measures their exertion rate, sport zones, caloric expenditure and heart rate.

"Everybody perceives his exertion level differently," writes Calipari on his blog. "Some feel they are working extremely hard and they’re not, and others perceive that they’re not working very hard when they really are. My hope is to get everybody in that second category. I want them to realize what their exertion level is in games compared to what it is in practice, and this device helps us do that."
