One of the hottest rising prospects out of the 2021 class is now receiving some interest from Kentucky’s coaching staff.
A five-star recruit and the No. 2 overall player according to 247 Sports, seven-foot Chet Holmgren has received some interest from assistant coach Kenny Payne, per the Herald-Leader.
“There hasn’t been much Kentucky buzz around Holmgren’s recruitment quite yet, but the Herald-Leader was told this week that UK assistant coach Kenny Payne — the Cats’ nationally respected post-player expert — has been involved in the early stages.” wrote Ben Roberts.
