The highest-ranked recruit at Big Blue Madness on Friday night will be Vernon Carey, a 6-foot-10 prospect from Florida who has long been locked in a battle for the No. 1 spot in the class of 2019 rankings.
This weekend’s official visit to Kentucky continues a busy month of travel for Carey, who spent last weekend at USA Basketball camp in Colorado and will spend the next three weekends on official visits to Duke, Miami and North Carolina, respectively.
Carey took an official visit to his other finalist, Michigan State, earlier this year, and he’s now considering the possibility of announcing a college decision this fall.
