Two important Kentucky recruits are up for the honor of the nation’s top high school basketball player, and one of them is already committed to the Wildcats.
Cason Wallace, a 5-star class of 2022 combo guard who signed with Kentucky back in November, was named one of 10 semifinalists for the 2022 Naismith High School Boys Player of the Year on Thursday afternoon. Joining him is another recruit of significant Kentucky interest, 5-star class of 2023 combo guard D.J. Wagner, who is considered the top junior in the country and uncommitted.
