Bill Self and Kansas basketball have offered Micawber Etienne, a six-foot-ten center from Suffield Academy in Connecticut. As of now, Etienne is ranked as the No. 59 recruit in the class of 2021 and No. 12 out of centers according to 247 Sports.
After the 2019-20 season, Etienne received Gatorade’s Connecticut Player of the Year Award while averaging 15 points, 13 rebounds, and four blocks per game.
In addition to KU basketball, schools like UCONN, Arizona State, Illinois, Louisville, Ohio State, Syracuse, and Seton Hall have also offered Etienne. The good news for Kansas is that they’re the only undisputed blue blood (sorry UCONN) to have offered Etienne so far, which may give them an advantage if others come knocking.
