Syracuse basketball gave it a second go-round in recruiting 2021 four-star power forward Arthur Kaluma, but it just wasn’t meant to be for the Orange to land the top-50 player across the country in his cycle.
The 6-foot-8 Kaluma, a senior at Dream City Christian School in Glendale, Ariz., announced on social media that he is planning to attend Big East Conference member Creighton.
According to reports, Syracuse basketball coaches had held more than one Zoom call of late with Kaluma. His other reported finalists, besides the ‘Cuse and the Bluejays, were Arizona, Mike Hopkins-led Washington and Western Kentucky.
