2019 five-star forward Matthew Hurt breaks down Kentucky interest, final schools on his list

Though Kentucky basketball’s 2019 recruiting class is rounding into form, John Calipari and the UK coaching staff are looking to close out their roster with just a few more key pieces. While most of the top recruits in the nation are signed, sealed, and delivered to their respective schools, there are a few prized prospects remaining.

One of those targets? Consensus top-ten forward Matthew Hurt.

Hurt, who told reporters on Monday that he will make a final decision on April 19, has said publicly on multiple occasions that he is down to six schools in his recruitment: Kansas, Duke, Kentucky, North Carolina, Minnesota, and Memphis.
