It's true that he'll be facing tougher competition at this level, especially if he picks UK over some of the mid-major schools he's been offered by, but he would also be playing with infinitely better teammates here that can set him up for easy shots and are threats to score themselves, thereby diverting some of the lockdown attention he might otherwise receive.
Like SilentsAreGolden said, it'll come down to how hard he's willing to play on the defensive end that will determine whether or not he'll get some major PT, as well as playing confidently and decisively on offense instead of passively. Just going by his length, athleticism, and rebounding stats I don't see any reason why he shouldn't be a respectable defender at the very least if he just gives the effort.
