Five-star prospect Zion Cruz, who received a scholarship offer from Syracuse basketball nearly two years ago, has been playing well on the AAU circuit and in other events of late, and his recruitment is picking up steam, according to media reports and comments from national analysts.

The 2022 combo guard, one of the top players at his position within this recruiting cycle, took an official visit to Southeastern Conference member Auburn at the beginning of June, and he had plenty of positive things to say about the Tigers.
