Will Kentucky get involved with Mackenzie Mgbako?

One of the top high school prospects reopened his recruitment on Tuesday, but it doesn’t sound like a situation the BBN needs to watch.

Duke Blue Devils signee Mackenzie Mgbako is currently ranked as the No. 7 overall player and the No. 2 overall power forward, according to 247 Sports.

On Tuesday, Mgbako officially requested a release from his NLI with Duke and reopened his recruitment.

It would make sense for the Cats to pursue Mgbako since they were involved before his commitment to Duke, and the loss of Jacob Toppin and likely Chris Livingston opens the door at the power forward spot.
