Bryce Hopkins to Providence

Former Kentucky Wildcats forward Bryce Hopkins has found his next home.

On Monday, Hopkins announced his commitment to the Providence Friars.

In an interview with On3’s Joe Tipton, said this of picking the Friars:

“I picked Providence because I feel like I was not only wanted but needed. From Day 1, before I made my commitment to Kentucky, me and Coach (Ed) Cooley built a strong relationship. I feel that Coach Cooley has a great plan for me to reach my goals of going to the next level.”

Hopkins, a 4-star prospect out of Chicago in the 2021 class, was originally committed to Louisville, though he later decommitted from the Cardinals in favor of the Wildcats.
