It’s Friday and we’ve got a handful of recruiting stories to go through to end the week, plus a preview of the weekend ahead where ThroughThePhog will be on hand for the Nike EYBL Atlanta session.

The biggest news of the week is that Marcus Lee announced his withdrawal from the NBA draft and his intention to transfer out of Kentucky for his remaining year of eligibility. We wrote about Kansas reaching out to him already, and we do expect Kansas to be involved in recruiting him over the next few weeks.

Kansas is still working hard to secure a commitment from Duke transfer Derryck Thornton, though information has dried up lately in regards to his leanings.
