Syracuse basketball held its annual Elite Camp this past weekend, and the Orange coaching staff doled out numerous scholarship offers to high-school prospects in the 2023 and 2024 cycles.

One of those offers went out to a 2023 big man who had previously received interest from the ‘Cuse, according to media reports. His name is Papa Kante, and he is a talented, under-rated prospect in this class.

The 6-foot-10 Kante, a power forward/center, is heading into his junior year at the South Kent School in South Kent, Conn.
