UK targets shine in Bluegrass Showcase

Several Kentucky recruits played in Lexington this weekend at the Bluegrass Showcase, and they put on a show. UK recruits Jarred Vanderbilt, Deandre Ayton, and Rawle Alkins all suited up – along with class of 2016 commit Wenyen Gabriel. Here’s a brief recap of how all the players did:

Wenyen Gabriel

With Kenny Payne and Coach Cal in attendance, Wenyen Gabriel put up 24 points and 11 rebounds in his team’s 83-73 victory. The most impressive part? He did it against fellow five-star recruit (and one time UK target) Thon Maker. Gabriel’s stock keeps rising and rising; he’ll be fun to watch next year.
