UK recruit Jaden Hardy drops 62 points

It never hurts to look ahead to recruiting classes that are coming up down the line, especially when you’re a program like Kentucky.

It bodes well for top coaches to get on the radars of elite targets early on, and John Calipari seems to have found a good one in the 2021 class with Jaden Hardy.

Hardy, a 6-4 combo guard out of Nevada, is a top-10 recruit in his class who is only trending upwards. In his most recent game, he again proved what an elite prospect he is.

Hardy scored 62 points to lead his team back from down 21 points to an overtime win.
