Ranking the Contenders for 5-star Guard VJ Edgecombe

Posted Dec 7, 2023
The top uncommitted prospect in the 2024 basketball recruiting class, VJ Edgecombe, sits on the No. 5 line in the Rivals150. It seems likely the 5-star guard will play college basketball at either Duke, Kentucky, or Baylor. Separating the three teams at the top is a bit tricky for the time being, however. Kentucky’s fast start is said to have intrigued Edgecombe. (Rivals.com)
