Scottie Lewis picks Florida Gators over Kentucky Wildcats

Five-star 2019 recruit Scottie Lewis has chosen to commit to the Florida Gators over the Kentucky Wildcats.

Pat Lawless broke the news.

Lewis is the #13 ranked player in ESPN’s high school recruiting rankings hailing from New Jersey. He was down to Florida and Kentucky before opting for the Gators, so he’ll face Kentucky twice next year.

After gaining the commitment of Tre Mann and Omar Payne recently, Florida’s momentum for Lewis began to grow as they continue to assemble a top-five class. To put more icing on the cake Florida added one of Lewis’ Ranney High School teammates, Alex Klatsky, as a walk on last Tuesday.
