Re-Ranking the Contenders: Patrick Baldwin Jr.

Posted Feb 24, 2021
The No. 5 basketball recruit in the class of 2021, Patrick Baldwin, Jr. is nearing a commitment. Duke was long thought to be the leader for the five-star forward but Wisconsin-Milwaukee, the low-major program led by his father, seems to be surging. The Panthers have always been an option for Baldwin Jr. because his father is the team’s head coach. (Rivals.com)
