Hunter Sallis likes Kentucky’s system, planning spring decision

Despite a summer of uncertainty and zero in-person recruiting, Kentucky has managed to identify its top point guard target in the class of 2021 in five-star prospect Hunter Sallis.

Sallis, a 6-foot-5 guard out of Omaha, Neb., is considered the No. 6 overall player and No. 1 point guard in the Rivals recruiting rankings. After weeks of rumored interest and contact this summer, the Kentucky coaching staff made it official with a scholarship offer back on Aug. 21.

“That feeling was great, growing up watching big schools like that,” Sallis said in an exclusive interview with KSR.
