Nearly a year ago, Scottie Lewis became one of the first basketball recruits in the class of 2019 to earn a scholarship offer from the Kentucky Wildcats.
This weekend, Lewis — a 6-foot-5 wing from Hazlet, N.J. — is scheduled to be on UK’s campus for his official visit. John Calipari will take a break from his fall recruiting travels to show the five-star prospect what UK’s coaching staff is hoping will be his future home, and Lewis will get an up-close look at what might be the No. 1 team in the country going into this season.
