Despite the NCAA Tournament being the biggest thing in college basketball the past few weeks, there is still news being made beyond the tournament.
The McDonald’s All-American Game, the yearly showcase of some of the nation’s top high school players, took place this past week, and there was one notable absence. The Kentucky Wildcats’ most recent commitment, Keion Brooks, was not invited to participate in the showcase.
Brooks really improved in his senior season at the La Lumiere academy, helping to lead them to the top of the nation’s high school basketball rankings. Brooks is a five-star recruit and is ranked anywhere from 13th in the 2019 class by 247 Sports to 38th by ESPN.
