According to Prep Hoops Kentucky, 2026 three-star shooting guard Jayden Johnson is transferring from Wasatch Academy (UT) and back to Louisville Trinity (KY). Johnson had previously attended Trinity before leaving for Wasatch Academy. Johnson is ranked No. 9, according to the Rivals Industry Rankings, in the state of Utah overall and with his return to Kentucky high school boys basketball immediately makes the Shamrocks a viable contender in Class 6A.

Johnson leaves a Wasatch Academy team that is currently ranked at the No. 1 team in the state of Utah while Trinity is currently ranked No. 28 in Kentucky, according to the Massey Ratings, respectively.
