Jaxon Kohler Chooses BYU Over NBA | BYU Cougars Basketball News

Six-foot-ten forward Jaxon Kohler, who went undrafted but lit up Summer League with the Utah Jazz, has flipped his decision and committed to BYU — choosing the Cougars over Kentucky and Kansas. After spending the summer working out on campus and playing in the G League, Kohler leveraged a recent NCAA court injunction that granted him an extra year of eligibility and allowed him to enter the transfer portal. His standout performance for the Jazz — averaging 6 points and 5 rebounds, including a 11-point, 6-rebound game against Memphis — reminded everyone of his Michigan State days as a four-year starter. For BYU, this is a major win: they’re getting a proven, physical local talent who could be a cornerstone under coach Kevin Young.
