LAKEVILLE, Minn. — Multiple Illinois recruiting targets are playing this spring and summer with teams like the St. Louis Eagles, Meanstreets and Mac Irvin Fire. Each has at least three prospective Illini recruits on its roster.
Add D1 Minnesota to that group. Lakeville power forward Nathan Reuvers, AAU teammates with point guard McKinley Wright (Champlin Park) and power forward Jericho Sims (Cristo Rey Jesuit), tweeted out his Illini offer late Sunday night. Illinois has also offered Champlin Park power forward Theo John.
Reuvers, a 6-foot-10, 220-pound junior, helped guide Lakeville North to the Class 4A Minnesota state championship game, where the Panthers fell 64-55 to Hopkins.
