A Record‑Setting Season
Milan Momcilovic’s 2025‑26 campaign will be remembered as one of the most prolific shooting seasons in Division I history. He finished the year with 136 made three‑pointers, shattering the Iowa State program record, and attempted 7.5 per game while shooting 48.7% from beyond the arc. No other player in the modern era has combined that volume with such efficiency.
The performance earned him national attention and a brief flirtation with the 2026 NBA Draft. After submitting his name to the draft exploratory process, Momcilovic withdrew his application when early feedback suggested he would not be selected, effectively ending his tenure with the Cyclones.
A New Chapter in Lexington
Momcilovic entered the transfer portal and committed to the Kentucky Wildcats, joining a program that has historically valued three‑point shooting. The Wildcats’ single‑season record for made threes stands at 117, set by Jodie Meeks in 2008‑09, a benchmark that now looms as the next target for the incoming sharpshooter.
Coach Mark Pope and the Wildcats’ staff see Momcilovic’s arrival as an opportunity to extend the team’s perimeter threat, while fans hope the move will translate into deeper tournament runs. The excitement surrounding his arrival reflects a blend of statistical dominance and the cultural impact of a player who has already redefined what is possible from the three‑point line.
