The former NBA star showed his support for Kee, who was redshirted in the 2024-25 season with the Georgia Bulldogs. Kee played for Sagemont Prep in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, before signing with Georgia. He has decided to return home to the Sunshine State to play for the Hurricanes next season.

"Welcome home nephew," Boozer wrote.

Kee will look to make an impact at Miami after he appeared in just two exhibition games for the Bulldogs in his first season at Georgia. He failed to register on the stat sheet in both of his outings against Central Florida and Charlotte.

Jai Lucas continues Miami rebuild with Jordyn Kee transfer

Jordyn Kee is a huge get for Jai Lucas, who took over as Miami coach after spending three season at Duke. The combo guard was previously a three-star prospect and Lucas will be hoping he can unlock the teen star's potential when he joins the Hurricanes.

The Hurricanes have been busy adding players after finishing the 2024-25 season with a disappointing 7-24 overall record. They failed to reach the postseason after finishing 18th in the ACC with a 3-17 slate.
