Little Rock Christian guard Layden Blocker (1) dribbles down the court during a game against E-Stem at the Wildcat Classic Championship game in Little Rock on Saturday, Dec. 28, 2019.

Arkansas basketball recruiting target Layden Blocker has visions of one day playing in the Final Four and winning a national championship.

To help him achieve his goal of being the best player he can be in college, Blocker (6-2, 170 pounds) will be transferring from Little Rock Christian to prep powerhouse Sunrise Academy in Bellaire, Kan., to play his last two seasons of high school basketball.
