Hoops Recruiting: Kaleb Wesson Focusing on Weight Loss, Seeing Improvement

Ohio State basketball commit Kaleb Wesson is not a small man. At 6-foot-10 and roughly 290 pounds, Wesson has been a force on the block ever since a breakout sophomore season in 2014-15, when he helped lead his Westerville South Wildcats to a Division I runner-up finish.

The following year, Wesson took his game to another level. He led the Wildcats to their first-ever state championship. Despite all of his immense success, a constant criticism Wesson has faced as been his weight, which the rising senior has been working at addressing this summer.

"I've been eating better foods and working out more," Wesson told Eleven Warriors.
