The No. 1 player in high school basketball is considering a reclassification to the class of 2021, and even with 12 scholarship players on the roster – six being frontcourt pieces – Kentucky is prepared to go out fighting by the time a decision comes at the end of the summer.
Jalen Duren, a 6-foot-10, 230-pound center in the rising senior class, has openly discussed the possibility of taking the professional route. At one point, the five-star prospect even told 247Sports that a school would have to “wow” him to consider going to college.
At this week’s Pangos All-American Camp in Las Vegas, though, talk of Duren strongly considering the college route this fall began ramping up, with the five-star center telling KSR that he has scheduled three official visits this month.
